## Colors that go with #7e265a

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

- **Teal** #008080 [harmony, pool: complementary] — Teal sits directly opposite #7e265a on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight. Seen in: Saffron (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/warm#saffron). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/teal
- **Taupe** #483c32 [pool] — Taupe is paired with #7e265a in 5 real palettes, including Blush and Bookshop, as that palette's text colour.

- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #7e265a: 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
- **Crimson** #dc143c [harmony, pool: analogous] — Crimson is #7e265a's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces.

- **Sea Green** #2e8b57 [harmony: split] — Sea Green is a split-complement of #7e265a: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/seagreen
- **Champagne** #f7e7ce [pool] — Two real palettes: Bramble and Darkroom put Champagne beside #7e265a, as the text colour against it.
