Quote

I found a poem about less is more which I find can really relate to simplicity.

Who strive - you don't know how the others strive
To paint a little thing like that you smeared
Carelessly passing with your robes afloat,-
Yet do much less, so much less, Someone says,
(I know his name, no matter) - so much less!
Well, less is more, Lucrezia.


An architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe adopted the motto "Less is more" showing a building to create an impression of extreme simplicity. This would be good to get a quote more from his interviews.
