interior design prioritizes simplicity, functionality, and clean aesthetics. Its key characteristics include sharp lines, a neutral color palette such as white, gray, and black, and a combination of materials like wood, glass, metal, and concrete. Natural lighting is maximized through large openings, while artificial lighting often incorporates concealed lights or LEDs to create a warm and elegant ambiance.
