Pub Design Project Ideas

First off I started sketching about 10 minutes ago after practically having an emotional argument with myself about how unstable I am. I skipped the rest of the glass of wine I was having and started brainstorming. I wish there were like 30 hours in a day and I had a high metabolism because I have so much I want to do and no time to really give any of it the time it deserves or the time I want to give it... sometimes I gotta sleep and eat and veg out.

If a white wall isn't really 'true' white, what color is it? Does the name of the color really make a difference in how the viewer perceives it? Does it make a difference in day-to-day life...(why I didn't use the word daily dunno)? Is "eggshell" that much better than "cream" and how do the guys know the difference if they pick up the wrong brush and it's so close? Do our printers, LCD screens, computer screens, TVs etc play tricks on us and say colors are different 'codes' or whatever when really they are the same thing? What the hell is the purpose of naming colors when it's possible we're all conditioned to SEE the same when really we see different? eg you see orange as orange (neither of us is colorblind in this hypothetical)... Okay you see orange, you've been told it's orange since you cold tell the difference between colors. Light reflects yada yada yada. I've been told the same thing but in 'reality' my orange is really green. I've been told and you've been told it's orange, yours might be a purple color... none of us really KNOW. Science tells us because of how light fragments and reflects off of crystals and whatever that that is what we see in the color spectrum ... but isnt that a condition? And back to colorblindness, aren't we ALL colorblind?
