With sleek lines being a part of the minimalist design characteristics, you must think of adding the element with mirrors.

Natural Materials
Minimalism has always pulled focus towards using natural materials in its designs. Terracotta, wood, and stones like marble or granite should be used to create an ideally minimal home. Make sure that these are sourced locally to get the best of the minimalism philosophy. ย
