In Japan, for example, minimalist architecture began to gain traction in the 1980s when its cities experienced rapid expansion and booming population. There are observers who describe the emergence of minimalism as a response to the brashness and chaos of urban life. ģ30 North Wabash in Chicago, a minimalist building by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe With regard to home design, more attractive "minimalistic" designs are not truly minimalistic because they are larger, and use more expensive building materials and finishes. The works of De Stijl artists are a major reference: De Stijl expanded the ideas of expression by meticulously organizing basic elements such as lines and planes.
Minimalistic design has been highly influenced by Japanese traditional design and architecture. Minimalist architecture became popular in the late 1980s in London and New York, where architects and fashion designers worked together in the boutiques to achieve simplicity, using white elements, cold lighting, and large space with minimum objects and furniture. Minimalist architectural designers focus on the connection between two perfect planes, elegant lighting, and the void spaces left by the removal of three-dimensional shapes in an architectural design. The term minimalism is also used to describe a trend in design and architecture, wherein the subject is reduced to its necessary elements. The reconstruction of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe's German Pavilion in Barcelona Yves Klein had painted monochromes as early as 1949, and held the first private exhibition of this work in 1950-but his first public showing was the publication of the Artist's book Yves: Peintures in November 1954. Minimalism was also a reaction against the painterly subjectivity of Abstract Expressionism that had been dominant in the New York School during the 1940s and 1950s. Minimal art is also inspired in part by the paintings of Barnett Newman, Ad Reinhardt, Josef Albers, and the works of artists as diverse as Pablo Picasso, Marcel Duchamp, Giorgio Morandi, and others. In a more broad and general sense, one finds European roots of minimalism in the geometric abstractions of painters associated with the Bauhaus, in the works of Kazimir Malevich, Piet Mondrian and other artists associated with the De Stijl movement, and the Russian Constructivist movement, and in the work of the Romanian sculptor Constantin Brâncuși.

The term minimalist often colloquially refers to anything that is spare or stripped to its essentials. Minimalism in music often features repetition and gradual variation, such as the works of La Monte Young, Terry Riley, Steve Reich, Philip Glass, Julius Eastman, and John Adams. The movement is often interpreted as a reaction against abstract expressionism and modernism it anticipated contemporary postminimal art practices, which extend or reflect on minimalism's original objectives.
Prominent artists associated with minimalism include Donald Judd, Agnes Martin, Dan Flavin, Carl Andre, Robert Morris, Anne Truitt, and Frank Stella.
In visual arts, music, and other media, minimalism is an art movement that began in post– World War II Western art, most strongly with American visual arts in the 1960s and early 1970s. 4A on Strada Dimitrie Racoviță ( Bucharest, Romania), probably late 2010s, unknown architect Top: "Untitled", by Donald Judd, concrete sculpture, 1991, in the Israel Museum Centre: The Zollverein School of Management and Design ( Essen, Germany), 2005-2006, by SANAA Bottom: House no.
