## Colors that go with #f2dece

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

- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #f2dece: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy. Seen in: Sweetgreen (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/sweetgreen-com), Paper & Pine (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/minimal#paper-and-pine), Frost & Ember (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/bold#frost-and-ember), Alaska Airlines (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/alaskaair-com). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
- **Lilac** #c8a2c8 [harmony, pool: split] — Lilac is a split-complement of #f2dece: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.

- **Sky Blue** #87ceeb [harmony, pool: complementary] — Sky Blue sits directly opposite #f2dece on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
