Maximalism x Minimalism
Manage episode 444369315 series 3494886
River + Michele chat about aesthetics and the topic goes into maximalism vs minimalism. In the arts, maximalism, a reaction against minimalism, is an aesthetic of excess. The philosophy can be summarized as "more is more", contrasting with the minimalist motto "less is more".
Maximal minimalism is on the rise—and honestly we couldn’t be happier. Simply put, it’s a great way to add some personally back to your otherwise sleek space. And although everyone is obsessed with decluttering their space (thank you, Marie Kondo), maximal minimalism proves there’s still room for fun.
The concept of shedding excess and creating peaceful spaces feels like it’s here to stay, especially in our increasingly chaotic world. But, personal expression is on the rise and our culture is only becoming more and more visually-oriented.
Michele and River both practice purging, decluttering but you'll have to listen to who falls into which category.
We hope you enjoyed this episode.
Thanks for listening!
Michele + River
