There are different color schemes are used in layouts of rooms as well as furnishing those are :

Monochromatic colour schemeA monochromatic colour scheme consists of different values (tints and shades) of one single colour. These colour schemes are easy to get right and can be very effective, soothing and authoritative . They do, however, lack the diversity of hues found in other colour schemes and are less vibrant.

Analogous colour schemeAnalogous colours are colours that are adjacent to each other on the colour wheel. Some examples are green, yellow green, and yellow or red, orange and yellow. Analogous colour schemes are often found in nature and are pleasing to the eye. The combination of these colours give a bright and cheery effect in the area, and are able to accommodate many changing moods. When using the analogous colour scheme, one should make sure there is one hue as the main colour. Complementary colour schemeComplementary colours are colours that are opposite each other on the colour wheel, such as blue and orange, red and green, purple and yellow. Complementary colour schemes have a more energetic feelThe high contrast between the colours creates a vibrant look, especially when used at full saturation. Complementary colours can be tricky to use in large doses.

Split-analogous colour schemeA colour scheme that includes a main colour and the two colours one space away from it on each side of the colour wheel. An example is red, blue, and violet.

Split-complementary colour schemeA colour scheme that includes a main colour and the two colours on each side of its complementary (opposite) colour on the colour wheel. These are the colours that are one hue and two equally spaced from its complement. To avoid fatigue and maintain high contrast, this colour scheme should be used when giving PowerPoint presentations, or when using a computer for an extended period of time. Additionally, certain colours should not be mixed, like red and green. Colours that should be used are red/violet and yellow/green. Triadic colour schemeA colour scheme in which 3 colours of equidistant distribution on the colour wheel are used, e.g., red, blue, and yellow.

Tetrad colour schemeTetrads (or quadrates) are any four colours with a logical relationship on the colour wheel, such as double complements. Neutral colour schemeA colour scheme that includes only colours not found on the colour wheel, called neutrals, such as beige, brown, gray, black and white.Accented neutral colour schemeA colour scheme that includes neutral colours, like white, beige, brown, grey, light brown or black, and one or more small doses of other colours. e.g. brown and beige with blue, gray and black with red. Warm and cool colour schemesWarm colour schemes do not include blue at all, and likewise, cool colour schemes do not include red at all. For example, a colour scheme that includes "warmer" colours may have orange, yellow, and red-orange in it. "Cooler" colours are green, violet, light blue, etc.
