Yellow, sunny and welcoming, is great for lighting up any dark areas of the house such as hallways and foyers.
Blue
Blue makes us feel calm and relaxed so it works well in bedrooms and bathrooms. Blue also suppresses appetite.

Black
Black. Sophisticated and elegant, it suggests power, dignity, mystery, aloofness, intimidation, and confidence.
