- **Deep Sky Blue** #00bfff [harmony, pool: triadic] — Deep Sky Blue completes a triad with #38f80d — three hues spaced evenly round the wheel, the classic way to get energy into a palette without a clash.

- **Hot Pink** #ff69b4 [harmony: split] — Hot Pink is a split-complement of #38f80d: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/hotpink
- **Charcoal** #36454f [role] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #38f80d: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
