Materials bring texture, warmth and a sense of time to a building. A limited palette lets those qualities become clearer.
Consider how a surface feels and how it will age, as well as how it looks in a photograph. Oak, stone and plaster offer different kinds of depth; the relationships between them matter as much as each individual choice.
A threshold, an edge or a handle can make the whole feel coherent. Giving these moments attention helps a restrained palette feel considered rather than empty.
