The History of Minimalism


Although the minimalist style gained popularity in the 1960s and 1970s, the fundamentals of minimalist design were established in Europe by the middle of the 20th century. Minimalism emerged as a popular aesthetic and artistic movement. It emerged during a backlash against extravagance and ornamentation of consumers, leading to many homes feeling cluttered and unsightly.

It began with sculpture and painting and spread to other fields like fashion, interior design, and architecture.

The minimalist approach emphasises minimalism and getting rid of anything unnecessary. It entails establishing a setting that is uncluttered, simple, and organised, with a small assortment of ornamental items and components.

The goal of minimalism.

This approach aims to reduce visual overload while achieving a sense of calm and order. Minimalism is used in many facets of life, not just in building and interior design.

The following are the main characteristics of the minimalist style:

  • Clarity and simplicity, with no superfluous ornamentation.
  • A monochromatic colour scheme or sparse colour usage.
  • Basic geometric forms. Clearly defined curves or straight lines.
  • A consistent and smooth appearance that gets rid of intricate patterns and textures.
  • Clear space makes things stand out and appear larger than they actually are.

Large pieces of marble and stone are the most common materials utilised in this design. They are chosen to make areas more elegant.

Additionally, cement, wood, and glass are used to coat walls or floors or to make furniture.

We suggest 1 of our porcelain or marble ranges that can be used in many areas, like our Carrara White real marble and our Calacatta Gold porcelain. Among their many benefits, for porcelain ranges we emphasise their exceptional durability, ease of cleaning, and ability to create a sophisticated yet understated minimalist aesthetic. For our marble ranges we emphasise their natural unmatched beauty and unique appearance of individual tiles.

To put it briefly, minimalism is predicated on getting rid of extraneous components and making things look straightforward. It has now transcended the realm of design and even evolved into a way of life.
