- **Sea Green** #2e8b57 [harmony: complementary] — Sea Green sits directly opposite #c61089 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
- **Teal** #008080 [harmony, pool: split] — Teal is a split-complement of #c61089: 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

- **Crimson** #dc143c [harmony, pool: analogous] — Crimson is #c61089's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces.
