I sat down in the living room. I read, turned the pages, read, skimmed, and read again. A long period passed.
Then I stood up and announced to the room, "this is a brilliant book!"
What more need I say?
I loved everything about it: the cover, the typesetting, the book design, the illustrations, and most of all, the commentary. I loved the analysis of the levels of simplicity and the distinction between quantity-simple and quality-simple. This is a deep and thoughtful book about a topic that sounds simple but is in fact deep and complex topic.
How do I know? I wrote "Living with Complexity" I wish I had been able to read this book first.

| Quote | "Simplification is an ideal we think we aspire to, whether we are talking about the simple life, a clean uncluttered aesthetic, truth to materials, or just efficiency and economy. Per Mollerup uses these different motives – functionality, aesthetics and ethics – as an organising principle for the book, and introduces a wide range of sources and examples." - Eye magazine |
