Minimalism in design began sometime in the 1950s and 60s, as influenced by the Bauhaus movement in architecture. The concept is about doing away with excess and only working with what’s essential. Thus, the gilded entryways and vivid painted ceilings have been replaced by simpler geometric structures and clean lines.
This movement carried on to other industries such as commerce and publication. Logos, book covers, magazines, website design, and packaging soon reflected minimalist influence. But just because it doesn’t look extravagant doesn’t mean it can’t be interesting. The smart use of vibrant colors, geometric shapes, and handmade illustrations can contribute to elegant, fun, and remarkable final products.
Using typography is one way of bringing this concept to life in your own works. You can start with these minimalist fonts and see how it instantly changes the look and feel of your projects.
