If it's a client making the suggestion, then whatever colour (note correct spelling ) she says is warm ... is warm!

Here's another perspective on this issue (from my mom):

"this is a thread on colours. INteresting to read. I think some people aren't aware that you can make any colour be cool or warm. There are cool reds. They just have more blue than yellow in them. There are warm greens, which have more yellow than blue. There are three primary colours-red, blue and yellow-isn't that right? So all other colours are combinations of those colours. But there are different reds and blues and yellows. YOu can have a warm brown-with lots of yellow in it, or you can have a cool brown which has blue in it. YOu can do the same with blacks or whites. Warm white-cool white. I think it might be harder to get a warm blue-but you can make a blue really cold and icy, or you can get it warmer by adding warm green. Generally, we think of the yellow-orange-red colours as warm, but you can move them to a cooler colour...colours can change."

Makes sense, doesn't it?

Sidenote: I showed mom this site when I was doing this design so she comes by here sometimes to make sure I'm still alive if I haven't e-mailed in awhile.

In an English Dictionary it says colour or U.S. color

well, since i'm not a native english-speaker, i was unsure for a long time how to write 'color'. finally i had a look at a dictionary and: you may write color or colour.

Maybe your client was thinking "rich" colors.
