- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #baca4e: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy.

- **Cornflower Blue** #6495ed [harmony, pool: split] — Cornflower Blue is a split-complement of #baca4e: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.

- **Plum** #dda0dd [harmony, pool: complementary] — Plum sits directly opposite #baca4e on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
