Psychology

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

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

🎭

Colour pairings

When it comes to colour harmony, for a natural palette, combine this green with terracotta, ochre, and warm cream. For a bolder approach, its complement — a warm red-magenta — creates immediate impact.
