Man's desire for freedom and order has existed throughout history. People often want to declutter and simplify their lives. While people enjoy collecting things, they are also drawn to the idea of traveling light and keeping possessions to a minimum.

1. Man’s desire for the freedom that comes with order and
calm has existed throughout history.
I think most people experience at times a desire to cut
the clutter and start afresh.
However much they covet or collect material things,
people are sympathetic to the idea of travelling light.
― John Pawson, architect & designer

2. SELFIEJuão Maya presents

3. I built my house from barley rice

4. Green pepper walls

5. And water ice

6. Tables of paper wood,
windows of light

7. And everything emptying into white

11. A simple garden, with acres of sky

12. A brown-haired dogmouse, if one dropped by

13. Yellow delanie would sleep well at night

14. And everything emptying into white

20. A sad blue eyed drummer rehearses outside

21. A black spider dancing on top of his eyes

22. Red legged chicken stands ready to strike

23. And everything emptying into white

24. I built my house from barley rice

25. Green pepper walls

26. And water ice

29. And everything emptying into white
