Yes.
RNIB - see Colour and contrast at home (RNIB website)
See also Reading University's Research Group for Inclusive Environment have
done some great work.
"Purchase the Colour, Contrast & Perception Design Guidance for Internal
Built Environments and the latest research publication on the Legibility and
Conspicuity of Emergency Escape Route Signage CDROM and receive a 20%

One thing that people often forget is that furniture should contrast with
the carpet and walls so that, for example, chairs aren't beautifully
camouflaged!
Lisa, my colleague Paul Sullivan would be happy to advise you...we are at
the same institution!!!!

Subject: colour schemes
Hi,
Does anyone know of any useful resources about colour schemes for internal
decoration of buildings? We're due to redecorate/paint our libraries and I
would like to make sure that they take accessibility into consideration
before choosing the colour schemes. (hopefully I'm not too late!)
Thanks
Lisa
