LESS IS MORE and MORE IS LESS

When more is less and less is more

When less is more.

Less is more can be best described to be various forms of art and design that for example is created whith a lot of effort that can be visuably seen hence making the design heavy. That is when the term less is more comes kicking in when a subject is carefully planed out to reduce the unnecessary elements leaving only the important bit that are necessary. It’s used widely in visual art music and architecture which are main forms of art that has a reason for this term which is ‘less is more and more is less’.

When more is less.

I think what best describes this opposite term from less is more are websites. Good websites give u the most with the simplest and easy to access solutions. For example a website could have bare things on it like video clips or music players and can be a bit of a hassle when they all are being loaded. But that is just an example of a bad website, a good one would obviously just give u thumbnails and give u the right to click whatever u want. This is when the term more is less relates I believe, when more thumbnails are given for easy access it decreases the level of making the website horrible and this can also relate to art works on their layout and elements used.
