- **Forest Green** #228b22 [harmony: complementary] — Forest Green sits directly opposite #5e035e on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/forestgreen
- **Denim** #1560bd [pool] — Designers have shipped Denim with #5e035e: 3 real palettes, including Hinge's brand system and Slack's brand system, as the accent. Seen in: Hinge (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/hinge-co), Slack (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/slack-com), Heinz (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/heinz-com). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/denim
- **Teal** #008080 [harmony: split] — Teal is a split-complement of #5e035e: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/teal

- **Blue Violet** #8a2be2 [harmony, pool: analogous] — Blue Violet is #5e035e's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces. Seen in: Taco Bell (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/tacobell-com). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/blueviolet
- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the text near-black for #5e035e: softer than #000 and cool enough to feel like part of the same palette. Seen in: Hinge (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/hinge-co). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
- **Tomato** #ff6347 [pool] — Two real palettes: FedEx's brand system and Golden Hour put Tomato beside #5e035e, as the supporting colour. Seen in: FedEx (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/fedex-com), Golden Hour (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/warm#golden-hour). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/tomato
- **White Smoke** #f5f5f5 [role] — White Smoke is the surface for #5e035e: a clean near-white with no warm cast, so the cool hue stays clear instead of drifting muddy. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/whitesmoke
