Five kinds of green

The groups above follow the way people actually describe greens:

Group	Feels	Typical uses
Mint and light	Fresh, clean	Health, skincare, spring designs
Bright	Energetic, natural	Calls to action, sports, eco brands
Forest and dark	Stable, premium	Finance, outdoor gear, headers
Olive and earthy	Calm, organic	Food, interiors, fashion

Greens shift strongly with their yellow or blue content. A yellow-leaning green such as chartreuse feels lively; a blue-leaning green such as teal feels cool and composed.

Green and accessibility

Red and green are the classic pair confused by people with the most common color vision deficiencies. If a design uses green for "success" and red for "error", add icons or labels, and check it in the color blindness simulator.

Green on screens

Our eyes are most sensitive to green light. A pure screen green (#00FF00) looks much brighter than a pure red or blue, which is why bright greens can feel loud. For large areas, choose from the earthy or dark groups and keep vivid greens for small accents.

For narrower slices of the family, see sage green, mint green, light green and lime green. To find what two paints make a particular green, experiment in the color mixer.
