[Seasons: Spring VI]
Have you ever seen a building painted green? It’s rare, but it happens.
The motive for a green building is innocent enough: to match the natural landscape. Makes sense, except it’s impossible to match the greens found in nature. Spring makes up for winter’s monotone pallet with hundreds, if not thousands, of shades of green. All at once, trees, grasses, and brush burst with a collage of flamboyant green-ness. It’s seasonal code that life has something to say to death’s attempt at ending the story. And spring does it with such excessive force that when it's underway one might think it’s permanent.
There’s no way to match spring's profligate green. Should one try, the bland green-like paint is guaranteed to look flat and lifeless.
Do your building a favor: don’t embarrass it by trying to match spring green.
