## Colors that go with #73175c

Named partners (harmony on the OKLCH wheel, co-occurrence in curated palettes and brand systems, and the neutrals that carry it), best first:

- **Sea Green** #2e8b57 [harmony: complementary] — Sea Green sits directly opposite #73175c 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/seagreen
- **Denim** #1560bd [pool] — Designers have shipped Denim with #73175c: 3 real palettes, including Hinge's brand system and Slack's brand system, as the accent. Seen in: Hinge (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/hinge-co), Slack (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/slack-com), Heinz (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/heinz-com). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/denim
- **Teal** #008080 [harmony: split] — Teal is a split-complement of #73175c: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/teal
- **Olive Drab** #6b8e23 [harmony: split] — Olive Drab is a split-complement of #73175c: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/olivedrab
- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #73175c: 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 #73175c wants: a warm off-white that shares its undertone, so #73175c reads softer on it than on pure white. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/cream
- **Crimson** #dc143c [harmony, pool: analogous] — Crimson is #73175c's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces. Seen in: Lenovo (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/lenovo-com). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/crimson
- **Gold** #ffd700 [pool] — Gold shows up next to #73175c in two real palettes: Mailchimp's brand system and Garnet, as the supporting colour.
