Reds should be avoided in bedrooms, classrooms, and waiting rooms. It may be ok as an accent color, used in extreme moderation. For the most part, though, reds should be used as the base color only in rooms where energy and courage are desired.
RED. Physical
Positive: Physical courage, strength, warmth, energy, basic survival, 'fight or flight', stimulation, masculinity, excitement.
Negative: Defiance, aggression, visual impact, strain.

We have two walls in our office that they colored red and then the rest is gray and white. It gives a nice pop of color in an otherwise colorless room.

I know a lot of people, around here, who would love those colors in their office or home. That is the colors of the college football team- Alabama Crimson Tide. My husband is one of the ones who would think that is awesome. People in the south live for college football.
