Green at medium lightness is the colour of balance and renewal — neither as urgent as red nor as recessive as blue.

Scheele's Green, an arsenic-based pigment popular in Victorian wallpaper and clothing, is now understood to have caused widespread harm — a cautionary chapter in colour history.

Design use
