I love minimalism. I think it's true that having a lot of things also means spending a lot of time maintaining and caring for them, time that I think I can use to do other things... But beyond that, the greatest quality of minimalism for me is that it helps simplify a lot of tasks, even when making decisions it is easier if there are few things.
Overloaded environments tend to stress me out a little, I don't know why, I think I start to imagine how to organize everything hahaha, so the less things, the better for me.
I wish you to build that beautiful refuge that you long for for your home. Blessings dear friend.
I agree, minimalism, as the name suggests, minimizes tasks and unnecessary things in life. That's the top reason for my inclination towards this way of life or for anyone.
But if we talk specifically about "design" then I think minimal designs have no character, e.g, architecture.
