- **Forest Green** #228b22 [harmony: split] — Forest Green is a split-complement of #691b44: 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 Dunkin''s brand system put Blue beside #691b44, as the accent.

- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #691b44: 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
- **Cream** #fffdd0 [role] — Cream is the surface #691b44 wants: a warm off-white that shares its undertone, so #691b44 reads softer on it than on pure white. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/cream
