The room my peeps and I are in has two off white walls and two blood red walls (supposed to be cherry (school color) but it's not... and don't try to tell an illuminator what color YOU think it is).

After five years, I have adapted but when we were moved down here, it took a good five months before I left the building muttering "redrum, redrum".

Don't people realize what colors can do in an office setting?  One of the many bad moves made by the previous VP for Enrollment Management

Cailte
would have welcomed orange...

I worked for a small weekly newspaper back in the early-mid 70s. We had a lime green shag carpet. You would not believe what got lost in it (G).
