      Haha, posting as a decorator I can say the black is not a colour, nor for that matter is white, they are both extremes of shades & tints of nuetral grey, I know this is true because Mr. Munsell said so

        I think you said it all correctly in post 1 SP,

        all depends on where and what is wearing the colors in the first place,i do like to wear bright colors,on me,especially turquoise,the bed room is a teal and beige,i never fail to love that room,when it comes time to redo the rest of the place i am thinking on a accent walls color yet unknown,i bedroom is shades of lilac with a purple carpet,the sloping ceilings capture the light from the window,now wants changing,i like to see TV make over programs for inspiration or thumbs down,

            Yep, black absorbs all light and white reflect all light. Taught color theory a long time ago!

              Just in case anyone is confused at this point, Munsell made a colour globe with neutral grey as the centre point that all others radiate from .....

                From the above comes the BS.4800 colour coding system (which replaced BS.4660) used to mark "standard" paint cans rather than a manufacturers colour name

                  I don't care what Munsell says. My fav colours are Black & White, I used to love putting on the Tux on Cruises. Sadly I no longer have it.................I gave all my cruisewear away.

                    We have as a household colours kicking about everywhere. Usually pen on the walls
                    My favourite is purple/lilac. Wills is green any shade, Hans is pink any shade(of course) and OH is Leeds United Yellow.
                    So I try and get these colours in the garden to keep everyone happy.

                            They need to spend some money on some decent players and keep the team line up the same for at least two games on the bounce. Can't expect a team to work together if they keep being shuffled about every match. Well that's what the OH says.
