I have a Pantone book, "Color: Messages & Meanings" that I use to demonstrate some simple color theory concepts to clients:
http://www.pantone.com/pages/products/product.aspx?pid=549&ca=8It's not very deep, but it's.... well it's pretty. You may find it useful. Plus, I have taken the book to Home Depot and have had them color match some of the swatches right out of the book.
Oh, and I'm a fan of Citizen Space's wall color as well. I'm placing my bet that it's: Benjamin Moore (2031-60) "Neon Celery"

Color theory class or not, everyone loves our color here at CS. It's the first thing people comment on. I don't know if it encourages creativity, but it makes people feel like it's a 'living, breathing' space. That's a nice response. :)Now, I'll go and figure out which exact color it was again...

What's the focus you want? Calm? Creative? Productive? Purples and grays are great colors for creative and collaborative environments (they are all over our space). Yellows increase productivity. Greens and blues add calm and slow down time as well as temperature. There is a lot more info/ details for each color, but I don't want to bore everyone with it.
