Minimalist living in Japan

TOKYO, JAPAN - JULY 02 : Clothes are seen in in a wardrobe at the Minimalist Naoki Numahatas home in Tokyo, Japan, on July 02, 2016. Naoki Numahata, 41, a freelance writer who lives with his wife and their daughter, decided to live less cluttered with useless personal and domestic possessions during a travel and after meeting a family who live quite simply in Croatia. This philosophy 'Minimalism' has become famous in recent years in Japan especially between young people who want nothing to do with acquiring material possessions, but would rather spend their money, time, and effort on things that they truly enjoy. Minimalism is a different style that uses pared-down design elements. Minimalism in the arts began in postWorld War II Western art, most strongly with American visual arts in the 1960s and early 1970s. (Photo by David Mareuil/Anadolu Agency/Getty Images)
