Who does not know the color paint of a minimalist house that is dominant? Yup, the color of a minimalist house that is still the most popular architectural style today is always identical to white.

The trend of the minimalist house paint color 2018 displays a striking contrast between the colors that "exist" and those that "do not exist," and a mixture of whatever is in between. That is, on the one hand you want to go back to the principle of minimalist house color paint that emphasizes simplicity , which is a simple , honest, and minimalist design, and on the other hand, you want a home design that looks more attractive, prominent, and of course elegant.

Minimalist house paint color 2018: Old colors, new patterns

The following trends in minimalist house paint colors 2018 still retain the main principle of minimalist architecture without sacrificing your own style and personality.

1. Soft neutral color

There is nothing wrong with white. You will be amazed to see so many white variants on the market. If it is difficult to choose a minimalist house color paint , combine white with neutral colors that will make it easier for you to choose other minimalist home paint color combinations. Some of the things you can choose are beige , gray, cream, and so on. Simple, isn't it?

2. Monochromatic color scheme

While maintaining a minimalist architectural style in 2017, the monochromatic color palette scheme will remain the trend of minimalist house paint colors 2018. This means that you will see more homes using the same blend of paint colors. However, the lack of contrast and accent on most minimalist home paint colors will encourage designers to choose a more experimental and bold color blend.

Associated with other minimalist design elements, the monochromatic scheme takes over the visual domination of the design to make it more attractive and easy to understand. That is, monochromatic color schemes can accentuate accents, rather than compete to attract attention.

Bright colors are very attractive and striking. That is, entering a variety of bold colors can create chaos in the design of your home. However, the monochromatic color scheme can overcome this dilemma.

Monochromatic color schemes from shades , tones and tints will produce a spectrum with a wide selection of minimalist home paint color combinations for every part of your home design. Look at the house below, which uses a monochromatic color scheme with a brown base color.

3. The color is cool or warm?

If you paint a wall with cool colors (green, blue, purple, or gray), mix it with a white variant that also impresses cooler ( cool white ).

Similarly, if you choose a minimalist house paint that is warmer (red, brown, orange, yellow or peach), choose a white color variant that has a little warmth ( warm white ).

The choice of color tone here will have more effect when applied as a color paint in the interior , compared to the exterior of the house, because you will stay longer in it and feel the immediate impact. It is recommended to choose cool inner color paint if you build a house in a hot area, and vice versa, choose warm inner color paint if you build a house / villa in a cold weather place.

4. Like contrast?

The understanding of many people about minimalist home design is a look that seems familiar and considered stale. However, the addition of contrast can prevent this, even if it is merely an aesthetic choice. The design example below uses contrasting dark gray and orange tones with a background of soft yellow tints to form a visually striking pattern.
