#34746frgb(52, 116, 111)hsl(175, 38%, 33%)oklch(0.516 0.066 188.5)Charcoal, Crimson and Amber lead the list. Each partner is a real named colour with the reason it works — a wheel relationship, a neutral that carries it, or a pairing lifted from a palette or brand system that actually shipped — and every pair opens in the palette tool.
Charcoal is the text near-black for #34746f: softer than #000 and cool enough to feel like part of the same palette.
Crimson sits directly opposite #34746f on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.

4 real palettes, including Warp's brand system and Kia's brand system put Blue beside #34746f, as the supporting colour.
