The
word minimalism has many different meanings. It can describe a lifestyle, a
form of art, architecture and design. A person with minimalist lifestyle has a
goal of clearing the clutter from their life and living with minimal
possessions. They try to only own things that they need to survive and that are
very important to them. Minimalism in an art form is abstract with a lot of
geometric shapes. There isn’t much detail and is very simple. Minimalism in
architecture strives to be simplistic with basic geometric shapes. It tends to
look modern with straight lines and clean edges. In my opinion I think
minimalism is a good idea because I hate clutter and love simple and modern
aesthetics. Also it’s a good way for people who have a hard time getting rid of
things and have a tough time letting go. It’s also a huge money saver because
you buy a minimal amount of things. I think it’s a good movement because it
teaches people you don’t need a lot of commercial items to live a happy life.
