Materials
The materials used in this design feature monotone colors from the dining area to the parent’s room and kid’s room. The use of warm and dim lights adds to the homely feeling of the space. The focus is on natural materials like wood and stone, which create a sense of warmth and texture.
Character is brought forth not through detail. Rooms are mono-chromatic, featuring subdued neutrals like whites, grays, and blacks. Walls are kept simple with only one or two decorative pieces, like a canvas or a mirror. All surfaces, from the kitchen to the bathroom, should be completely cleared off, and furniture features clean lines with very little detail. Minimalism is influenced by Japanese Zen philosophy and the aesthetic principles of Ma and Wabi-sabi, this creates a sense of openness and reduces clutter in the space.
