Understanding the Different Shades of Green

Green is soothing and peaceful. It gives a sense of naturalness and earthiness. Maybe the human eye has developed so as to be calmed at the sight of a lush green forest. Green is certainly the most familiar colour to the human eye. It is all the rage in the fashion industry as well (see these green prom dresses, for example). We take a look at the lot of colours evolving from green that will help us to understand the different shades of green.

Chartreuse

Chartreuse is a French liquor which shares its colour with Absinthe-the green fairy. This colour has a gloss and gives a sophisticated feel to your design.

Sage

A shade of green leaning towards grey is sage. It gives a washed out and dry sense to your compositions.

Lime

The colour of summer. The most lively shade of green is lime. It’s the perfect blend of green and yellow. Gives away a raw and young feel.

Olive

Olive is a dull shade of green, leaning towards grey and brown. It can be used to communicate antiquity and decorum.

Emerald
