Difference from Contemporary Minimalism: One is Philosophy

A minimalist interior driven by conviction rather than aesthetics. Contemporary minimalism pursues visual cleanliness, hiding pipes, making storage invisible with seamless facades, and achieving seamlessness with expensive craftsmanship. Here, it's the opposite: pipes and hardware are exposed, furniture structures are fully visible, and materials are inexpensive steel tubes and plywood. Cleanliness is the result of removing decoration, not hiding. Avoid: hiding equipment and pipes, using handleless invisible storage facades, pursuing seamlessness with expensive craftsmanship, making the space appear refined and luxurious.

一個出於信念而非美學的極簡室內。當代極簡追求視覺的乾淨,會把管線藏起來、把收納做成隱形的整面立面、用昂貴的工法達成無縫。這裡相反:管線與五金外露、家具的結構完全可見、材料是便宜的鋼管與合板。乾淨是去除裝飾的結果,不是隱藏的結果。避免:把設備與管線藏起來、使用無把手的隱形收納立面、用昂貴的工法追求無縫、讓空間顯得精緻奢華。
