Although ASTRA VERNICI does not deal directly with decorative paints (wall paints of the house line), it often happens that, seen as “color experts”, customers interested in painting the house ( or “Rethink it<\/strong>“) give us a specific question: “We have chosen the perfect colors for the living room, but how do we know the amount of each color that we should use? ”<\/p>\n When it comes to “interior design” (as for the entire creative sector), there are absolutely no “correct” or “wrong” answers! Surpassing the choice of tone, the smartest customers come to meet us thinking about the composition and the visual “space<\/strong>” that the color will occupy.<\/p>\n It\u2019s frustrating, but at the same time it\u2019s probably also a blessing. How much monotony there would be if every house were furnished the same way, with the same tonality and dispositions dictated by rules or presumed advices indicated by pseudo professionals!<\/p>\n Anyway, we can provide a universal advice, linked to classical beauty, the one theorized in ancient Greece<\/strong>, based upon balance and harmony.<\/p>\n A type of immortal beauty, made grandiose by Italian painters and sculptors, first of Roman times and then during the Renaissance, like Raphael, Michelangelo, Leonardo, Donatello<\/strong> (obviously we are not talking about ninja turtles…), Botticelli<\/strong>, and many others (fortunately, in Italy we have no shortage of examples). We could discuss in depth how, in the course of history, the Pisan mathematician Leonardo Fibonacci<\/strong> created the formula that best expresses this “code”, often called the Fibonacci code or golden succession.<\/p>\n The entire creative world, such as photography, cinema, sculpture, painting and even music, have taken this into account, even where they went against the canons.<\/p>\n However, we don\u2019t want to talk about history, but to write down something helpful for you, as far as possible, to paint or think home in a harmonious<\/strong>, enveloping and pleasant<\/strong> way. So we come to the concept of 60-30-10<\/strong>, which can really help develop a room along with color<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”34407″ img_size=””][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n The 60-30-10<\/strong> rule aims to balance the colors used in an area with a pleasant way, assigning percentages to the amount of color you use,<\/p>\n This is the rule: 60% main color + 30% secondary color + 10% accent color.<\/p>\n Now, you don\u2019t have to go and measure exact percentages to make it work. It\u2019s the concept that matters. The next most common color is a warm tone of the furniture, which is our secondary color and represents about 30% of the color in this room.<\/p>\n Finally, our 10% accent color is a blue present on the patterns of the carpet. Although these colors are not used much in the general space, they do a great job shifting the interest of our eyes around the room.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n While the 60-30-10 color rule<\/strong> is a fantastic base for home staging, here are some quick tips<\/strong> to share for smart use.<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”34403″ img_size=””][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]The dominant color of the room is tortora white, which occupies at least 60%<\/strong> of this room.<\/p>\n The 30%<\/strong> of the secondary is a tone similar to the primary, but darker, present for example in the fabric of the sofa.<\/p>\n The 10%<\/strong> of accent color is a more saturated blue, present in the pillows and in high details, on which the look falls, but we also find the second accent color<\/strong>, a pastel pink that enhances the inserts and captures the eye as well.<\/p>\n The color of the varnish can transform and revitalize your home to engage and create cozy home environments. The way to do it is through the 60-30-10, which is not a telephone code, but a guide to getting a harmonious and welcoming home<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Did you know there’s a hidden principle to varnish your house with creativity and balance.

\nThe Greeks realized first that the beauty appreciated by all has “universal<\/strong>” canons, linked to symmetry and balance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
\nWe suggest some guidelines to follow, which derive precisely from the great intuition of the ancient Greeks and the Pisan mathematician.<\/p>\nA matter of balance<\/h3>\n
\n
\nJust think about using a dominant color throughout most of the room, a second color for about half the room, and a third color accent for those little pop colors around your space.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”34405″ img_size=””][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]In this case, you can see that the dominant color of the room is tortora white, which clearly occupies at least 60% of this room.<\/p>\nOther useful tips for use: 60-30-10 + 10<\/h3>\n
\n
\nFor example, if the color palette is white, gray and petroleum, you can still use a cushion that also has inserts of other shades ?
\nYes, as long as that insert retains a primary color suitable for 60-30-10.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
