In the RGB color wheel, these two analogous colors occur to the right and left of Dusty Yellow with a 30° separation on either side.

Split-Complementary Palette
As per the RGB color wheel, the split-complementary colors of Dusty Yellow (#D4CC9A) are #9ABFD4 (Dark Sky Blue) and #AF9AD4 (Light Pastel Purple). A split-complementary color palette consists of the main color along with those on either side (30°) of the complementary color. Based on our research, usage of split-complementary palettes is on the rise online, especially in graphics and web sites designs. It may be because it is not as contrasting as the complementary color palette and, hence, results in a combination which is pleasant to the eyes.
Triadic Palette
Dusty Yellow triadic color palette has three colors each of which is separated by 120° in the RGB wheel. Thus, #9AD4CC (Pale Robin Egg Blue) and #CC9AD4 (Light Grayish Magenta) along with #D4CC9A create a stunning and beautiful triadic palette with the maximum variation in hue and, therefore, offering the best possible contrast when taken together.
Tetradic Palette
The tetradic palette of Dusty Yellow has four colors - #9AD4CC (Pale Robin Egg Blue), #9AA2D4 (Blue Bell) and #D49AA2 (Parrot Pink) in addition to the base color (#D4CC9A). A tetradic color palette is complex and, in most cases, should not be used off-the-shelf. We suggest tweaking the colors slightly to achieve desired results.
Square Palette
Dusty Yellow square color palette has #9AD4AF (Turquoise Green), #9AA2D4 (Blue Bell) and #D49ABF (Light Medium Orchid). Quite like triadic, the hues in a square palette are at the maximum distance from each other, which is 90°.
Note: For several colors purposes, a square palette may look much better than the tetrad color palette.
Dusty Yellow Color Rainbow Palette
Our Dusty Yellow rainbow color palette is based on the RGB model and consists of 7 colors, just like the traditional rainbow. You might not see a lot of variation in color, especially if the chosen color is dark or extremely light. However, this can lead interesting rainbow palettes that are faded, soft, pastel or dull.
