## Colors that go with #bebc6f

Named partners (harmony on the OKLCH wheel, co-occurrence in curated palettes and brand systems, and the neutrals that carry it), best first:

- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #bebc6f: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy. Seen in: Disney (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/disney-com), Coastal (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/cool#coastal), Dusty Blue (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/cool#dusty-blue), Beach Hut (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/light#beach-hut). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
- **Emerald Green** #50c878 [harmony, pool: analogous] — Emerald Green is #bebc6f's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces. Seen in: Ledger Dark (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/dark#ledger-dark), Ubereats (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/ubereats-com), Peloton (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/peloton-com), Meadow (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/light#meadow). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/emerald-green
- **Sky Blue** #87ceeb [harmony, pool: split] — Sky Blue is a split-complement of #bebc6f: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.

- **Lilac** #c8a2c8 [harmony, pool: complementary] — Lilac sits directly opposite #bebc6f on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
