The term minimalism is used to describe a trend in design and architecture where in the subject is reduced to its necessary elements. Minimalist design has been highly influenced by Japanese traditional design and architecture. De Stijl expanded the ideas that could be expressed by using basic elements such as lines and planes organized in very particular manners.Architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe adopted the motto "Less is more" to describe his aesthetic tactic.

In the collection “City House” they are some design of house that are minimalism. For example:

*House T*Helechos*Ombúes*Retama*House G*Loft Forests*Of the Bridge

A slab of concrete with a smooth and glossy finish accommodates the space for the dinning room, barely delimited by the transparency of a glass rail on an intermediate floor between two floors that begin at the lobby. Minimalist interior architecture where the intense colors of wood stand out on the walls, handrails and doors, and most remarkably, the ebony of the furniture in the dinning room, accentuated by the whiteness of its carpets and an elegant slab of marble. The large windows and the use of neutral colors on most of the finishes adds light to the atmosphere.

The transparency of the interior facade reveals a pleasing aesthetic experience, not only through sculptures and paintings of great artistic value, but also trough the way they are displayed to the observer. The architectural concept also approaches artistic dimensions in a space where wood, color, texture, furniture and the originality of the different elements that take part in the composition are equally.
