About this title

Synopsis

Minimalism is perhaps the most popular design approach of our time. It is often misunderstood, because it appears so simple and yet it requires a great deal of competence to get by with just a few stylistic devices and still create an impressive outcome. The variety of minimalist realization makes use of the possibilities that art and design offer as well as the means of architecture. Only the symbiosis of all three elements creates the perfect outcome that is a space with a highly effective atmosphere and a very visual character. This book fully explores the variety of minimalist projects in art, design, and architecture.

Store Description

We stock books about art, design, fashion, heritage/history and gender/sexuality, specialising in books about Australian, Asian & Pacific arts, crafts design and cultural history. Since we are committed to marginalised and innovative social and cultural practices, we are more likely to have books on women artists or dissident life than coffee-table books on iconic figures. This shop is in Sydney's legendary Kings Cross area, which has provided alternatives to this country's normalcy and suburbia for the last 80 years. Colloquially known as 'The Cross', this name signifies Antipodean bohemia, streetgangs and a world-famous red light district etc. THE CROSS Art + Books is a foundation member of The Bookdealers Guild (NSW).
