Minimalist Filming Locations

Sometimes simplicity is all you need for a great setting. With its clean lines and soft colours, minimalism can offer peace and tranquility just as easily as it can coldness and distance, making it a versatile style for all kinds of filming and photography shoots.

Emerging in the mid-20th Century, minimalism has become a firm favourite of filmmakers and interior designers alike. A rejection of the abstract expressionism popular during the post-war era, it favours form above all else, characterised by geometric shapes and utilitarian elegance. In its purest form, minimalist artwork is meant to provide the viewer with an instant visual reaction, with no references to anything other than itself.

More recently, minimalism has found a place in softer, more homely styles such as Japanese and Scandinavian design. Drawing on the simplistic shapes and functionality of traditional minimalism, these styles also utilise natural materials and calming, earthy colours, bringing warmth and natural light into otherwise stark spaces. These elements are common in some of our most popular location houses, providing beautiful, unique environments for a variety of shoots.
