The internet has become divided yet again over what shade of color people are seeing. This time it’s not the infamous dress of yesteryear that appeared to be either black and blue or gold and white. Now it’s simply one color that is splitting people up in two distinct camps and it’s those that see blue versus those that see green. Check out the color below and decide for yourself which one you see!
Optical Express, a company based in the United Kingdom, conducted a public survey on color perception in which they asked people to identify the color as belonging to either the blue or green color family. At first glance, 64% answered green and 32% answered blue.
The same participants were then asked to identify the same color once again, but this time it was in-between two colors that were clearly blue. The second time around a whopping 90% responded that the color was green! According to the Optical Express website, the color is in fact more green than blue, and this becomes much more clear when it’s placed next to shades that are definitely blue.
However, the real lesson to take from all of this is that how we see and visually interpret the world can drastically differ from one person to the next. It’s not only that particular shade of color we see differently, that’s a very basic example, it can be anything else we’re visually perceiving that may be different..
Amazing how one little swatch of color can spark such interest and illustrate how unique we all are. Share this with your friends and family and see what color they think it is!
