The premise of using colors to influence the desired mood for the room of a house is very useful for designing interiors and clients and a nice thought-provoking exercise. Colors are intentional, and the proper use of this knowledge is beneficial not just for designing your house but to small tasks. For example, warm hues usually tire people out. These hues were bright oranges, red and colors that fall into that spectrum.
Red colors were the intense bunch and should be used as an accent. They could stimulate conversation and increase confidence but too much of it is too dramatic. Red can also increase appetite that is why most of the fast-food chains operate with this color.

Orange is the attention getter color. It can be a detail for enthusiasm and can aid decision-making.

Yellow is a bright, cheerful color but too much of it can cause eye fatigued. An interesting fact mentioned is yellow tend to make babies cry. This makes yellow a no-no color for nurseries, or not prioritized.

Green is a relaxing and calming color because it does not strain the eyes as it falls to the middle of the color spectrum. Also, it is associated with good health that is why organic products tend to have green in their advertisements
Blue is also a calming color that is why going into beaches is a relaxing activity, aside from the calming sound of ocean waves. Blue is associated with creative thinking and evokes boost in performance and indicates intelligence. Blue is also associated with telling the truth. However, too much blue can be associated with sadness, maybe that is why being sad is sometimes called blues or feeling blue

Purple is associated with royalty. True enough, color purple looks good with the queen of Britain, or that is just fashion talk. It can also relate to spiritual awareness. Purple is a calm color but too much of it can actually heighten sadness.

Pink, which is a slight variation to red, is a caring, loving and nurturing color. Unlike red that is associated with passion, pink is good with subtle emotions like love, either romantic or platonic. However, darker hues of pink like hot pink carries the same influence as red. They can become intense, intimidating, and passionate.

Black is a sophisticated, mysterious and luxurious. However, like any other darker colors, black can be very happy when it is put too much.

White is the color for purity and cleanliness that is why hospitals are in color white. White is like a blank canvas that is why white harmonizes well with other colors. However, too much white can also evoke hostility to some, and can be appalling.

Gray is a passive color and can be used with textures to make it appealing.

Lastly, brown is a color associated with stability, reliability, and nature. In my observation, most coffee shops were more appealing when it has brown or wood texture, not only it is visually attractive, but the ambiance indicates a formal charm that most students or professional look for that can be a good location for meetups and studying.

In conclusion, colors, which are often overlooked, can be a decisive factor to how people behave around the space. As such, color is a powerful language for communication, where words could no longer fill.
