## Colors that go with #8d017d

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 #8d017d 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
- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #8d017d: 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

Seen in: Slack (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/slack-com), Peacock (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/vivid#peacock), Hinge (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/hinge-co). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/denim
