soundarya thakur Instagram – #HOMESERIES PART 7 Color theory?
In interior design, the “60-30-10 rule” refers to color theory that suggests using 60% of a dominant color (like wall paint), 30% of a secondary supporting color (like doors & wooden work), and 10% of an accent color (in smaller elements of the house) to create a balanced and visually pleasing color scheme.
Detailed explanation:
The 60% is the overall color of the room, the background color if you will. Examples of what 60% of a room includes: Walls, Area rugs, Sofa or other large pieces of furniture
To give a minimalistic aesthetic choose merging colours.
The 30% is secondary color in your space and will support the main color, but be different enough to give the room interest. Think of it this way, you’ll be using half as much of this color as you did for your main color.
The fun percentage is your 10%; your accent color. It can be more bold. The 10% can be what gives the room character, it’s really up to you.
