Color
#eb731ergb(235, 115, 30)hsl(25, 84%, 52%)oklch(0.685 0.172 49.4)Charcoal, Cornflower Blue and Amber lead the list. Each partner is a real named colour with the reason it works — a wheel relationship, a neutral that carries it, or a pairing lifted from a palette or brand system that actually shipped — and every pair opens in the palette tool.
Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #eb731e: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy.
Cornflower Blue sits directly opposite #eb731e on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
Amber is paired with #eb731e in 6 real palettes, including Maple and Ember, as the accent.
5 real palettes, including Sketch's brand system and Readymag's brand system put Blue beside #eb731e, as the accent.
Burlywood is paired with #eb731e in 4 real palettes, including Kiln and Coffee Bar, as the accent.

4 real palettes, including Woodsmoke and Coffee Bar put Champagne beside #eb731e, as that palette's text colour.
Crimson is paired with #eb731e in 6 real palettes, including Burger King's brand system and Retro Pop, as the lead colour.
