## Colors that go with #9e2e95

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, pool: complementary] — Sea Green sits directly opposite #9e2e95 on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.

- **Denim** #1560bd [pool] — Designers have shipped Denim with #9e2e95: 4 real palettes, including Peacock and Hasbro's brand system, as the supporting colour.

- **Teal** #008080 [harmony, pool: split] — Teal is a split-complement of #9e2e95: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. Seen in: Gemstone (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/vivid#gemstone). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/teal
- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #9e2e95: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy. Seen in: Hasbro (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/hasbro-com). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
- **Olive Green** #808000 [harmony: split] — Olive Green is a split-complement of #9e2e95: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/olive
