Japanese minimalism places a strong emphasis on simplicity. Designs often feature clean lines, uncluttered layouts, and a focus on essential elements. The goal is to convey a message or idea with the utmost simplicity and elegance. This simplicity extends to color palettes, with a preference for neutral tones and limited use of color.
Incorporating skin and body images into branding allows for effective storytelling. The visuals become part of the brand narrative, conveying messages about the brand’s values and its commitment to enhancing natural beauty.
The goal is to convey a message or idea with the utmost simplicity and elegance. This simplicity extends to color palettes, with a preference for neutral tones. The use of clean and minimalistic typography on the combination of two fonts helps to complement the visuals and brand logo.
The minimalistic structure of the visual style helps the user to navigate the site more easily in choosing a product, and smooth animation and short video clips of cosmetics make scrolling through the site fascinating and memorable.
As additional graphics, minimalistic illustrations were created to show the type of product and its appearance. The combination of two different thicknesses of lines adds neatness and helps to highlight the different parts of the product.
