Colour of the month Many shades of Green - September

Green is the prime colour of the world, and that from which its loveliness arises.
— pedro calderon de la barca

When you are in a natural environment, you look around and see a wonderful abundance of green shades.  In the ancient Chinese belief of feng shui, it is considered important to bring shades of green into your home surroundings. Different home decor elements like a plant, rug, cushion cover or a green painted wall, are said to invite fresh energy and new beginnings, bringing in nature's healing effects.

Green is created using the combination of the colours yellow and blue and sits between blue and yellow on the spectrum wheel. It is the colour of life, nature, renewal, health, growth, harmony and freshness.
