Minimalissimo Weekly Edit
Letter Nº8
Hello. Some exciting news to share with you is that we have completed the printing of our limited edition set of gradient prints in collaboration with Berger & Föhr. We just need to frame and photograph a set, then we'll make them available to order. The result of this project is incredible, so we're hyped for its release.
Our features over the past week included a really insightful interview by Canadian furniture and homewares brand EQ3, a visit to Tokyo to see the minimal and monolithic Mass Museum, and a small reminder that minimalism requires no ornamentation in our featured mood. Take a look, take it slow, and enjoy your Sunday.
—Carl Barenbrug, Creative Director
Creator Interview
EQ3 (Furniture Brand)
"Buy less, buy better, buy used. We believe that products should last, because they have been designed to be timeless. We therefore choose to eliminate unnecessary decorative elements that are short lived or trendy."
Features
Mass Museum
Surrounded by residential architecture in central Tokyo, Mass Museum stands out like a concrete monolith. Comprised of three distinct galleries, the Nobuo Araki design unites classic gallery functionality with an underused urban space.
Vierschach Fire Station
In this iconic project of the rose-tinted fire station by Italian studio Pedevilla Architects, the design prioritises simplicity and the reduction of detail, and in fact, the building is an experiment within itself.
