Psychology

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

History

The pigment verdigris — a green formed by the corrosion of copper — was widely used in medieval manuscripts and early oil painting, despite its tendency to darken over time.

✏️

Design use
