- **Olive Green** #808000 [harmony: complementary] — Olive Green sits directly opposite #6502de 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/olive
- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the text near-black for #6502de: softer than #000 and cool enough to feel like part of the same palette. Seen in: Campus (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/friendly#campus). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
