## Colors that go with #e14ca5

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

- **Cadet Blue** #5f9ea0 [harmony: complementary] — Cadet Blue sits directly opposite #e14ca5 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 #e14ca5: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. Seen in: Terminal (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/technical#terminal). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/mediumseagreen
- **Tomato** #ff6347 [pool] — 3 real palettes, including Sunset Boulevard and Night Market put Tomato beside #e14ca5, as the lead colour. Seen in: Sunset Boulevard (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/warm#sunset-boulevard), Night Market (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/vivid#night-market), Airbnb (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/airbnb). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/tomato
- **Charcoal** #36454f [role] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #e14ca5: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
- **Taupe** #483c32 [pool] — Taupe is paired with #e14ca5 in two real palettes: Dunkin''s brand system and Airbnb's brand system, as the lead colour. Seen in: Dunkin' (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/dunkindonuts-com), Airbnb (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/airbnb). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/taupe
- **Yellow** #ffff00 [pool] — Two real palettes: JetBrains's brand system and Arcade put Yellow beside #e14ca5, as the accent. Seen in: JetBrains (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/jetbrains-com), Arcade (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/vivid#arcade). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/yellow
- **Dark Goldenrod** #b8860b [harmony: triadic] — Dark Goldenrod completes a triad with #e14ca5 — three hues spaced evenly round the wheel, the classic way to get energy into a palette without a clash. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/darkgoldenrod
- **Medium Orchid** #ba55d3 [harmony: analogous] — Medium Orchid is #e14ca5's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/mediumorchid
