- **Sea Green** #2e8b57 [harmony: complementary] — Sea Green sits directly opposite #960d7b 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 #960d7b: 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: Peacock (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/vivid#peacock), Slack (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/slack-com), Hinge (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/hinge-co). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/denim
