Colour Psychology: Green

Colour Psychology: Green

27 April 2022
 
 

Abundant in nature, and rich with positive associations, green can have a powerful impact on our moods. With shades ranging from intense and vibrant through to soft and subtle, you can level up or tone down interiors to create spaces that both benefit, and balance, emotions.

 
 
 

Good Vibes

 

Invigorating, refreshing, and calming, green can trigger a wealth of aspirational feelings. With connections to luck, health, wealth, and safety, we can find ourselves motivated, inspired, and optimistic in green environments. Though some negative associations with the colour exist (most notably that of illness and envy) the overwhelming vibe of green is that the home is better with it.

 

The Call of Nature

 

The mind often falls to lush grass, dense forests, and the environment in general, when it comes to thoughts of green. Assumed to be an evolutionary advantage, seeking out green spaces may often have ensured food and shelter for our ancestors, with those implications trickling through to us today. Bringing the outside in has been a hot trend for the last few years with green rising in popularity along side it.

Green is good anywhere, but attempting to blur the lines between what’s outside and what’s inside the home can create a wonderful sense of infinite space. Try to blend and echo shades of green, plants, or nature-inspired patterns with the glimpses trees, flowers, or grasses seen through windows.

 
 

Cool and Relaxed

 

Believed to relieve stress and ease the mind, green is not only nice to look at, it’s also good for you. Inviting optimism, green can help you see the good more clearly, quieting the noise of everyday living, and allowing focus on benefits and solutions.

Due to the drama and finesse this style of red interior brings, it’s best suited to spaces that can take it. Such as in a dining room or a bathroom.

 
 

To Motivate and Inspire

 

When allowing the mind to clear and relax it can become a breeding ground for creativity as well as a hub of motivation. Dampening negative thoughts and inviting a sense of safety allows creativity to flourish. A desire to act on creative thoughts is also inspired by green.

Make the home office green. Let your imagination fly, and improve your mood with a simple colour choice.
