- **Cadet Blue** #5f9ea0 [harmony: complementary] — Cadet Blue sits directly opposite #cc71ac 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/cadetblue
- **Medium Sea Green** #3cb371 [harmony, pool: split] — Medium Sea Green is a split-complement of #cc71ac: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.

- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #cc71ac: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy.
