Youheum Son is truly an extreme minimalist.
Aside from her cat’s bed, a few string lights and flowers, Son’s apartment, which she shares with her minimalist sister, fully emulates her dedication to the minimalist lifestyle. And yes, that includes zero furniture.
“My space is filled with more nourishment and the things that nurture me instead of the furniture that gets in the way of me actually moving freely around my space,” she said to AOL Lifestyle.
Her journey towards a less-is-more lifestyle began after realizing her “shopaholic ways” were toxic. Son began her voyage with reading Marie Kondo’s popular book, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing ($7.70, Amazon), which taught her about “cultivating happiness as opposed to cultivating more possessions.”
For Son, that even meant using a simple hammock as a bed.
“I don’t believe everyone has to eliminate furniture in their life to find happiness or to cultivate mindfulness,” she concluded. “My standard of abundance is being focused on what I really, really want…”
