About Simple Minimalist House Plans
Minimalist architecture can be characterized by one word: simple – reducing a building down to its most basic form, function, and essence. Nothing over the top, nothing extra, and forget the ornate froufrou-ness. This is also true about minimalist house plans.
The same minimalist characteristics of buildings apply to their respective floor plans.
Minimalist house plans are typically comprised of simple geometries of space. Their layouts are functional and purposefully arranged. And while many are compact and efficient in space planning wasting very little space, others are roomier and open, letting furniture and spaces breathe. The goal is not to be small and compact. It’s to create simple, clean spaces that evoke a sense of order and tranquility regardless of the size.
Simple forms, open floor plans, minimal interior walls, modest storage areas, and an emphasis on views and daylight are defining characteristics of many minimalist house plans. Many minimalist floor plans also lack redundant space. You won’t find extra spaces like formal sitting rooms, dining rooms, libraries, dens, or walk-in closets. Spaces are adaptable and flexible for multiple purposes and storage spaces are sized for basic necessities.
It is important that the specification of the home design plan is not totally left to the discretion of the designer. The home should be a reflection of the personality of the residents and the owner should thus have a say in the overall appearance of his home.
Allowing the family to plan ahead can mean a smoother construction process. Making material changes after the home design plan has already been drawn and while the home is being constructed can result to a poorly built home. Plus, it can add to the expenses of building a home.
