The 60-30-10 rule is a timeless design guideline that creates a perfectly balanced space

Ever wonder why some rooms just *feel* right? The 60-30-10 rule is a timeless design secret to create a perfectly balanced and harmonious space in your Scarborough home, taking the guesswork out of colour selection.

60% - The Dominant Colour: This main shade sets the overall mood, covering walls, large rugs, or major furniture. Benjamin Moore's extensive palette offers the perfect hue to anchor your space.

30% - The Secondary Colour: This complements your dominant shade, adding depth without overwhelming. Use it for trim, an accent wall, drapes, or even a ceiling colour from lines like Coronado or Insl-X.

10% - The Accent Colour: This 10% adds personality and a pop of excitement. Think decorative pillows, artwork, or lamps – your chance to be bold or introduce a metallic finish!

This rule ensures a visual hierarchy, preventing your space from feeling too busy or bland. You can even use different shades within each percentage for subtle variation.
