#feb371rgb(254, 179, 113)hsl(28, 99%, 72%)oklch(0.824 0.12 61.3)Charcoal, Cornflower Blue and Deep Sky Blue 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.
Cornflower Blue is a split-complement of #feb371: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.
Deep Sky Blue sits directly opposite #feb371 on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
