Psychology

Mid greens feel natural and reassuring; they dominate brand identities associated with sustainability and health.

History

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
