- **Crimson** #dc143c [harmony, pool: analogous] — Crimson is #600032's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces.

- **Teal** #008080 [harmony: complementary] — Teal sits directly opposite #600032 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/teal
- **Denim** #1560bd [pool] — Designers have shipped Denim with #600032: 3 real palettes, including Heinz's brand system and Box's brand system, as the accent.

- **Forest Green** #228b22 [harmony: split] — Forest Green is a split-complement of #600032: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/forestgreen
- **Blue** #0000ff [pool] — Two real palettes: Tim Hortons's brand system and Sketch's brand system put Blue beside #600032, as the accent.

- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #600032: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy. Seen in: Hinge (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/hinge-co). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
