Let’s resolve the mystery and get talking.

What is 60-30-10 rule of decorating?


Commencing with the first part and that is:

  • 60% rule: When someone walks in a room and the first color they notice of your room tagging it as “oh wow your room’s color is blue”. Quite a simple statement but has a strong meaning behind it. This color is the one that reflects your main choice for the room décor. This is your dominating color that overlooks the rest hidden beneath. 60 % involves your most dominant color of the room. The one you want people to eye at and look appreciative towards. This is the start of creating your color palette for the room.
     
  • 30% rule: The texture that clicks the person’s instincts is your secondary color calling it the 30% rule. Another addition to your color palette. Doesn’t this make it easy for you? When it comes to selection the rule carries a great benefit. It helps you sort yourself out of color selections. This usually involves the contrasting effect like chairs, painted furniture, walls etc... This behaves like a supporting artist who isn’t here to steal the spotlight.
     
  • 10% rule: this last 10 % is basically known to be just an accent in the room. Not too over the top but like an underdog. Complementing the room in a different and fun way. Just like an add-on to complete a particular room décor. Blending colors can be a difficult task therefore this helps in the completion of the color palette selection and quite easily helps you with making choices. This adds fun to the décor of your room by adding wall hangings, wall clocks, wall paintings and various types of accessories giving a complete look to your room.

It isn’t a compulsion to measure the percentage and get worked up too hard just keep in mind the fact that you need to choose a dominant color and the rest two should be slightly below it.
