KREUL Acryl Mattfarbe Grün Weihnachten Deko

Colour of the month: Green

12/20/2021 |

True, a white Christmas would be a highlight in December. But, originally, the traditional Christmas colour wasn't white but green. Over the dark winter months, people would yearn for a bit of green and brought green branches into their homes. This is where the tradition of the Christmas tree is rooted. Green instils hope, heralding the coming spring. For us, green is a relaxing colour that radiates serenity. That's why we have chosen green as our colour of the month for December. This colour is wonderfully suitable for Christmas decorations, but remains a friendly dash of colour even after the holidays.

 

Colour mixed from yellow and blue with endless variations

Nature shows off innumerable variations of green that our eye can precisely differentiate. Whether it is the tender green of fresh leaf buds, the heartening green of a summer meadow or the more reverent green of coniferous forests, each nuance of this colour evokes a different mood. Green is a secondary colour as it is mixed from blue and yellow. Light green contains a larger proportion of yellow, whereas blue is dominant in dark green. In the colour wheel, green lies between yellow and blue, with red as its complementary colour. If you put red directly next to green, the green starts to glow intensely. At the same time, red can neutralize the colour green if you mix the colours with each other. This creates a grey shade.
