Maybe a stupid question!

Hi guys, I am just in the throws of getting my darkroom back, trying to get it finished and everything in and up and running before and over Xmas, small but purpose built.
Here's the question, does the colour of the walls have any bearing on the safelight and I am presuming I need some sort of anti fungal paint, ie bathroom type?
99% of what I do will be black and white, cheers lads, any iinfo welcome.

Welcome to the darkroom owners. I have just used white latex wall paint.

Most of the darkrooms I remember had plain white walls.
And yes a chalk-based anti-fungal paint might be useful.
