Minimalist architecture reduces building to its absolute essence — pure geometry, restrained materials, and the elimination of everything non-essential. The catalogue holds 5 Minimalist buildings across 5 cities.
Peter Zumthor's Bruder Klaus Field Chapel — a charred concrete chamber in a German field — is Minimalism at its most radical. Valerio Olgiati's Swiss school buildings use concrete with monastic restraint. These buildings achieve intensity through reduction: every surface, joint, and proportion carries weight because there is nothing else to distract from it.
