Big Chill Color Spotlight: Fern Green

September 8, 2021 by Big Chill

Ferns are one of the oldest groups of plants on Earth, with a fossil record dating back to approximately 400 million years ago. Ferns are unique in that they reproduce with spores, and like all other plants that reproduce with spores transformed from a water plant into a land plant in prehistoric times. This is why ferns are often found and thought to be at home in mild, rainy climates. Ferns however, are a diverse family of ancient and highly adaptable plants, including several varieties that can grown in surprisingly difficult conditions.

In your home, the color green is said to represent healing, growth, and new beginnings. An earthy, grounding green, Fern Green brings the pure energy of nature to your kitchen and home. The relaxing nature of green works well in large expanses, making it a good choice for your kitchen, a room in which to nourish and replenish.

Fern Green showcases its grounding qualities on modern kitchen appliances, coordinating with a variety of textures and shades. A Big Chill Custom Color option, Fern Green is one of over 200 custom colors available alongside customizable metal trim.

The color green in design

Greens can play well with either yellow or blue, making them versatile in the shades available for use in your home. The way green translates in design can depend a great deal on the particular shade, with lighter greens creating a more airy atmosphere and darker greens a more traditional aesthetic. An earthy shade, like Fern Green, is more on the yellow side of the green spectrum and pairs well with coordinating shades like brown and tan.
