1.) THE RULE OF 60-30-10
When decorating a particular room, divide the colors into percentages.
60% of a dominant color
30% of a secondary color
10% of an accent color

This is similar to a business man's outfit when wearing a suit.
60% of the outfit's color are the slacks and jacket
30% of the outfit's color is the shirt
10% of the outfit's color is the tie

Translated to a room setting:
60% of the room's color is the walls
30% of the room's color is the upholstery
10% of the room's color is a floral arrangement

Decorating a space in terms of color is as easy as 60-30-10!
