Minimalism at its purest: 25 years of Minus craftsmanship in 25 interiors 

For 25 years, the Belgian design studio and production workshop Minus has been creating timeless interiors that exude calm, simplicity, and aesthetic refinement. To mark their anniversary, they have compiled 25 inspiring projects into one elegant book, presented in chronological order.

The Essence of Living is an ode to minimalism: light tones, thoughtful materials, and a seemingly effortless harmony between function and form. Through extensive photo essays and concise explanatory texts, this stylish volume offers a glimpse into the subtle evolution of Minus’s signature style over the years. Carefully curated and beautifully produced, this book is a source of inspiration and tranquillity for admirers of understated interiors, architectural purists, and design professionals alike.
