Graphic Design for The Minimalist by Kimberly C. Manners explores minimalism as both a visual and conceptual strategy in contemporary graphic design. Guided by the principle of “less is more,” the project examines how elements such as typography, colour, imagery, layout, and whitespace can be distilled to their essence without compromising clarity or communication. Drawing from the historical roots of minimalism in art and design, Manners situates her work within today’s visually saturated world to advocate for restraint, focus, and intentionality. Through iterative exploration, she reveals how the thoughtful reduction of form enhances both functionality and emotional resonance, allowing meaning to emerge through simplicity. The thesis ultimately positions minimalism not as mere simplification but as a disciplined design approach—one that transforms limitation into clarity, elegance, and enduring impact in visual communication.
