We think the two smaller walls should have the color and the other two walls in the off white. What is the rule here? Thank you for your advice.

Please advise. Going with asparagus green for the downstairs bedroom would also like suggestions on what to color the stairwell wall which is to the right of the small hallway. The stairs lead to a hallway upstairs. I am also wondering if I should color the stairwell wall and the upstairs hallway the same color, since one does lead into the other.
