> Has anyone seen research on laminate colors used in Exhibits? 

There has been actual research on the colors used in store displays
and packages --- two highlights: reds excite people, but pink,
specifically Pepto-Bismol shade (really!) calm people.

Enjoy your research, but I would say most visitors care far less
about laminate than exhibit designers do.  And, as someone who has 
sat through a two hour exhibits meeting where the upshot of the discussion
was "Kiwi Corian" (now a discontinued color!) I'm with the visitors.

"They can have any color they want, as long as it's black."  --Henry Ford
