+## 🎯 Minimal Mode
+
+Kansō supports a minimal mode that reduces the color palette for a cleaner, more focused coding experience. This mode uses fewer distinct colors while maintaining readability and visual hierarchy.
+
+<details>
+<summary><strong>🔳 Using Minimal Mode</strong></summary>
+
+Enable minimal mode in your configuration:
+
+```lua
+require('kanso').setup({
+    minimal = true,
+})
+```
+
+When enabled, the color scheme changes to:
+
+| Element | Color |
+|---------|-------|
+| Variables, Constants | White (foreground) |
+| Parameters | Gray |
+| Functions, Methods | Blue |
+| Types | Aqua |
+| Keywords, Statements | Gray |
+| Operators (`=`, `+`, `*`, etc.) | Yellow |
+| Brackets, Punctuation | Gray |
+| Properties, Members | Violet |
+| Strings | Green |
+| Numbers | Pink |
+
+This mode is ideal for:
+- Reducing visual noise while coding
+- Users who prefer a more monochromatic aesthetic
+- Minimizing distractions during focused work sessions
+
+</details>
+
 ## 🧰 Customization
 
 In Kansō, there are _two_ kinds of colors: `PaletteColors` and `ThemeColors`;
