Coffee Table Book Art of Less

Known for its clean, restrained aesthetic, minimalism is often appreciated for its appearance rather than its principles. The ART OF LESS reclaims minimalism as a sensory and intellectual practice. Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen of Copenhagen-based Norm Architects and Sarah Dorweiler, founder of Aesence - a curatorial platform dedicated to contemporary minimalist art and design - profile 20 contemporary artists, designers and architects whose work demonstrates that reduction is about presence, not emptiness. Organised around the five elements of balance, rhythm, contrast, space and materiality, the book reveals how restraint creates resonance, presenting minimalism as a way of thinking, feeling and creating. - Author: Norm Architects - Hardcover edition with 320 pages - Language: English - Edition: 2026 - Publisher: Gestalten Made in Germany
