- **Dark Cyan** #008b8b [harmony: complementary] — Dark Cyan sits directly opposite #e1098e 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/darkcyan
- **Forest Green** #228b22 [harmony, pool: split] — Forest Green is a split-complement of #e1098e: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. Seen in: Bun (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/bun-sh). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/forestgreen
- **Crimson** #dc143c [harmony, pool: analogous] — Crimson is #e1098e's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces.
