Description

When people think of minimalism, they are always misled by its name and the stereotyped image created by mainstream media, which will discourage people who are interested in practicing minimalism. But in fact, practicing minimalism is not as difficult as imagined. Nowadays, Minimalist has developed different factions with social changes, but its diversity is limited by the limited publicity of mainstream media and few people care about it. Therefore, this project will enable the public to have a correct and new understanding of minimalism by leading the target audience to explore the diversity of minimalism. In the narrative method, "subtraction" is used as the concept throughout the work. Combining with visual elements such as dots, lines, surfaces, shapes, fonts, and colour transparency to visualize five minimalisms and eight similar lifestyles to tell a story about the less-known part of Minimalism.
