- **Forest Green** #228b22 [harmony: split] — Forest Green is a split-complement of #65063a: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/forestgreen
- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #65063a: 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
