"Generally, sources below 3200K are considered "warm;" while those above 4000K are considered "cool" sources." -taken from the section on light

Ok Im just wondering is it a typo,my camera or just ME which it probably is!

I thought the higher the number the warmer the image will be and the lower number being cooler??

At least when i take a shot of my living room at WB "shade" it comes out orangy and "warm" but when I set it to "i cant think of setting name but its 3200K and it appears cooler.

What am I not getting here?

thanks in advance guys and girl
