- **Sea Green** #2e8b57 [harmony: split] — Sea Green is a split-complement of #7a153d: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/seagreen
- **Rust** #b7410e [harmony, pool: analogous] — Rust is #7a153d's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces. Seen in: Garnet (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/warm#garnet). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/rust

- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #7a153d: 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
