The Simplification Wave: Living More with Less

In the chaos of modern life, a simplification wave is blowing through! Discover the calming effect of minimalism in every area, from your home to your style, from your habits to your way of life. From Steve Jobs to home decoration, learn how simplification has become a philosophy of life.

Lace covers decorating televisions, side tables, even sofas and armchair backs; figurines big and small popping out from every corner; and of course over-the-top plants that turned homes into something resembling the Amazon rainforest… This decoration fashion, once embraced to a wild extreme, has thankfully become simpler and simpler over the years. Now the trend worldwide is: simplifying not just in home decoration, but from head to toe!

Simplification Comes from Within

The simplification trend, perhaps one of the most beneficial of recent years, covers not only living spaces but also people's entire habits. Born as a reaction to growing technology, tiring cities, and a life that gets slightly more complicated every day alongside all these, the simplification movement aims to help a person make peace with their inner world and find what truly makes them happy and at ease. At the end of this simplification journey, you can open a new page in many areas—from what you eat to what you wear, from home decor to your social life—and make healthy choices.

The Steve Jobs Effect

Everyone remembers the jeans and black turtleneck combo that became identified with Apple's founder, the legendary entrepreneur Steve Jobs, who practically never took it off throughout his life. The fact that the father of Apple—regularly listed among the world's most valuable companies—escaped the glamorous life and moved toward simplification in both his home decor and daily life is cited as one of the biggest reasons this trend spread around the world.

Simple and Calm Homes

Simplifying your home, the safe harbor where you hide from the tiring pace and chaos of life, can give you a completely new perspective. For example, if you have a guest living room you use once in a blue moon, you can clear it out and turn it into a hobby room where you do only what you love and store up peace while inside.
