In Choson Dynasty, every house needed to be humble. They could colour their house. Coloring the house was strictly banned except the Palace and the Shrine. The size of house was also strictly prohibited.
Due to the Confucian philosophy, the extravagancy was perceived as immoral behavior
Solid reminders of what was (is) important in cultures in the past and some of what is meant to be important today as well.
