Orange can be a tricky color, better to be used in smaller doses unless you are using a variation such as terra cotta, peach, or a more complex shade or tint. Psychological effects are similar to red however to a slightly reduced effect. (exciting, stimulating, cheerful, lively, energetic)
The sociological effect: orange is a declassifier. Think of the chain 7-11 or Big Lots... you think quick and cheap.
Orange used right can be beautiful, sophisticated, and can add that extra punch of excitement in a room. Think of the orange Hermes boxes that represent ultimate luxury. Orange put with chocolate brown can instantly look add a feeling of quality and luxury!
