Tips
- 1Prioritize negative space: Actively describe the empty areas around your subject to emphasize its form and create a sense of calm.
- 2Use a restricted color palette: Specify a limited range of colors (e.g., 'monochromatic white and grey,' 'two-tone black and red') to maintain visual simplicity.
- 3Focus on simple forms: Describe subjects with clean lines and basic geometric shapes to enhance the minimalist aesthetic.
- 4Limit details: Avoid adding excessive embellishments or background elements. Use keywords like 'sparse,' 'uncluttered,' or 'essential elements only.'
- 5Experiment with 'ABSTRACT' and 'CONCEPTUAL' keywords: Sometimes, describing the mood or concept in a minimalist way can yield stronger results than overly literal descriptions.
