- **Sienna** #a0522d [harmony, pool: analogous] — Sienna is #83070b's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces. Seen in: Woodsmoke (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/dark#woodsmoke). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/sienna
- **Cream** #fffdd0 [role] — Cream is the surface #83070b wants: a warm off-white that shares its undertone, so #83070b reads softer on it than on pure white. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/cream
