Color
#fed148rgb(254, 209, 72)hsl(45, 99%, 64%)oklch(0.877 0.156 90.1)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 sits directly opposite #fed148 on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
Deep Sky Blue is a split-complement of #fed148: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.
Crimson is paired with #fed148 in 7 real palettes, including Wells Fargo's brand system and Diner, as the lead colour.
Designers have shipped Denim with #fed148: 9 real palettes, including McDonald's's brand system and FIFA's brand system, as the accent.
Designers have shipped Dodger Blue with #fed148: 6 real palettes, including Miro's brand system and Star Wars's brand system, as the accent.
