Colour of December: Theatre green

December 2022

This season's dark green takes on a Hitchcockian tone. Its depth is a perfect match for a winter palette, and its hint of blue takes us away from a purely vegetal connotation for a more mysterious mood.

More demanding than black, brown or navy blue, it brings that touch of elegance and refinement by combining with dark shades, precious woods, gold and velvet. 

But this impetuous green goes equally well with pastels and very bright colors, with strong contrasts and cameos, as long as its dramatic accent is to your taste...
