- **Teal** #008080 [harmony, pool: complementary] — Teal sits directly opposite #6e2d0d on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.

- **Denim** #1560bd [harmony, pool: split] — Denim is a split-complement of #6e2d0d: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.

Seen in: Superhuman (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/superhuman-com). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/slateblue
- **Cream** #fffdd0 [role] — Cream is the surface #6e2d0d wants: a warm off-white that shares its undertone, so #6e2d0d reads softer on it than on pure white. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/cream
