- **Dark Cyan** #008b8b [harmony, pool: complementary] — Dark Cyan sits directly opposite #b14e88 on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.

- **Sea Green** #2e8b57 [harmony, pool: split] — Sea Green is a split-complement of #b14e88: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. Seen in: Next.js (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/nextjs-org). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/seagreen
