    I thought everyone knew this but clicked to verify:

    Light Green: Used on walls to reduce visual fatigue

    It’s the “default” color our brains like and zones out about. So it makes the emergency “look at me” colors stand out even more.

    It’s like the analog version of “blue light filters” on digital screens.

    Actual white reflects too much light and becomes drastically.

    My wife and I took a tour of Hanford Site B. We were in the area and the tours are free. While the colors didn’t stand out to me (they are meant not to), the ‘fonts’ in all of the (hand painted?) signs certainly did: they looked Exactly like they came from the Fallout games. Of course it’s the other way around, but the consistency was striking.
