Minimalist Style

Reduce until it breaks — then add one thing back.

Tenets

1. Few shapes
2. Few colors
3. Negative space intentional
4. Typography-like clarity of form
5. Abstract OK if brief asks

Recipe

Target 1 subject, 2-3 colors total, 70% or more negative space, soft even light, square crop.

1. Material: pbr_material.py single flat color, roughness 0.7, metallic 0, no textures.
2. Lighting: light_rig.py preset overcast (soft, almost shadowless).
3. Camera: camera_rig.py lens_mm 85, fill 0.35 (subject small in frame), aspect "1:1".
4. Render: render_preset.py eevee_final, then comp_grade.py clean.
5. Keep the background a single color in World (the light rig sets it); remove props until the shot breaks, then restore one.
