Psychology
Green is the most restful color for the eye — the lens focuses on it almost without effort. It conveys balance, growth, and safety in equal measure.
Meaning
Universal shorthand for nature, health, money, and permission ('go'). Saturated mid-greens read as fresh and youthful; deep forest greens read as luxurious and established.
Applications
Workhorse hue for finance, health, sustainability, and outdoor brands. Pair with cream, beige, or muted ochre for an organic feel.
