## Colors that go with #e462cf

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

- **Medium Sea Green** #3cb371 [harmony, pool: complementary] — Medium Sea Green sits directly opposite #e462cf on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight. Seen in: Terminal (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/technical#terminal). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/mediumseagreen
- **Light Sea Green** #20b2aa [harmony, pool: split] — Light Sea Green is a split-complement of #e462cf: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. Seen in: Netlify (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/netlify-com). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/lightseagreen
- **Yellow** #ffff00 [pool] — 3 real palettes, including JetBrains's brand system and Gumroad's brand system put Yellow beside #e462cf, as the accent. Seen in: JetBrains (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/jetbrains-com), Gumroad (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/gumroad-com), Arcade (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/vivid#arcade). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/yellow
- **Charcoal** #36454f [role] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #e462cf: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
- **Medium Purple** #9370db [harmony, pool: analogous] — Medium Purple is #e462cf's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces.
