This home concept generally features several colors at once. It can be seen from the wall paint color. The recommended color combination for a minimalist house is bright colors and dark colors.

Lighting is another important thing in a minimalist house design. The focus is on the selection of lighting colors and direction. The common lighting colors used are yellow and white. Each color has a different characteristic. Yellow color creates the impression of a romantic and warm room, while the white color creates the impression of a formal and spacious room.
