    I want to create a box around the content area and giving some different background to the minimum pro theme.
    Would you please tell me what CSS do I use ?

    That would be quite a bit more complicated than adding CSS since Minimum is designed to be a full width theme. Is there any particular reason why you chose Minimum over one of the child themes that isn't full width?

    I have resolved the customization by myself. Making site inner as a container in CSS and it worked. I love the full width menu, site-tagline widget and custom homepage from minimum. As genesis gives unlimited number of possibilities for customizations.
