It is difficult to find a housewife who does not want the rooms in her apartment to be distinguished by harmonious design.

The secret to such an “uncluttered” interior is to follow the “60-30-10” rule.

The recommendation concerns the color scheme of the living room, bedroom or kitchen.

Yulia Tychino, an expert in the field of design and interior design for the online publication BelNovosti, spoke about the essence of the “60-30-10” rule.

In other words, when decorating a room, you need to focus on only three colors.

The main one should take up about 60 percent, the second one - 30 percent, and the third one - 10 percent.

Following this simple rule will make the appearance of any room beautiful and harmonious.

It will be possible to get rid of excessive variegation and visual noise. The design will become more “calm”, laconic and at the same time stylish and pleasant.

It is worth emphasizing that you can be more than limited to three colors. But it is important that colors that are not primary do not occupy more than one percent.
