But that's my point. "Minimalist chic" is a misnomer because at least something is aesthetically there to belie the fact that the functionality is not actually minimalist. It's almost like an uncanny valley thing IMO.
- airstrike 6y agoI'm not saying "aesthetic minimalism" is proper nomenclature, just that people are solving for that particular aesthetic slice when they pick their designs by generically extracting features from "functional / real minimalism" as you correctly pointed out. I think we're arguing the same thing, you just did it much more eloquently.
