Pandemics occur, and they kill thousands to millions when they do, and although that was before our modern medicines, the world was much less globalized.On the other hand, the reaction to pigs and pork has been ridiculous.

And unlike wall colors, artificial light has the added bonus of changing as the mood strikes.I'd suggest that if you do plan on adding light, you do that before deciding on recoloring anything.I agree wholeheartedly with @Marcia Maynard, "Perhaps hire a lighting specialist to help you see the possibilities."
