                Notes

    Emotions are affected¹ by colour. Tests show that most people think
of blue and green as peaceful colours, yellow as cheerful, and red as
exciting.
    Colours may be grouped according to the way they make people feel:
cool and warm. The cool colours are blue or mainly blue in cast. The
warm colours are red or mainly red and yellow. People often feel cold
in a blue room and warn in a red room, yet they may not know that it is
the colours that make them feel this way.
