Today we're looking at the home of Japan's most EXTREME Minimalist. Owning only 250 items, his life seems like quite a challenge, but let's take a look inside his Japanese apartment and see how he does it!

What's not to like? He's clean, neat, organized, clearly knows what he wants in life, interesting, funny, passionate & consistent with his hobbies, creative, tech savvy, geeky, which I like... ya, I can see many ppl liking him as a bf/husband. Just the minimalist part is a bit difficult. But hey, rooms n items can be divided n she can have her section & he'll only have to mind his part. It could work if both compromise a bit. Also, sincerely hope he sells his shirt & shopping bag. They are kinda cool.

As a woman I find him attractive. I think he’s creative, independent and has very clear ideas. Having an empty home forces us to look at ourselves, whether we like it or not. I find it fascinating and I don’t think he’s lonely at all. His shirt is the best creation ever 😳

I live in a 40 sq ft and with only 212 items total it indeed feels too big. Problem is, at least in EU, there is no other option. 20 sq ft or less houses are rarely available or non-existent, so you are forced to pay more rent. This is why people end up hoarding.

It sounds like his sense of minimalism allows him to really focus on the things that give him joy. And I'm sure it's an enjoyable hobby in itself.
@bzomeful
@bzomeful 25 күн бұрын
Is it that the minimalism allows him to focus on the things that give him joy or that focusing on minimalism, in itself, is the principle thing that gives him joy? Or it just so happens that his three main passions (design, samurai theatre and gaming) don’t necessarily require a large amount of items at home or completely mesh with his love of minimalism. For example, if he was an avid golfer, he would probably be conflicted given a full golf set has tons of items (14 clubs, a bag, balls, tees, etc). I’m interested in where he keeps his tools and equipment (rented workshop space maybe?) especially if he is designing and making his own clothes and items.

He even has an extra controller! And that shirt?! I was already admiring the pockets then he goes on and sticks a Macbook into it. And that little computer that has a keyboard and a controller. I am likely his direct opposite. I see an empty space, I must fill it. My hobbies? I will have every equipment needed, lol. Another great video, Norm.

I don't think I could live like that but when I look around just my room... there really is a LOT of stuff that is just sitting there and hasn't been touched for a long LONG time. And that folding magnetic shopping bag is a very cool idea.

While minimalism may not appeal to everyone, the reality is that we often accumulate more possessions than we truly need. Addressing this tendency is a crucial first step toward freeing ourselves from unnecessary burdens and possessions, ultimately leading to a more simplified and fulfilling life.

Putting aside he's a minimalist, he has a recognisable system to me. When I lived on my own, I can tell you, I learned so much, because you don't have time. I was studying and working. I had little time to organize and clean my home, not to mention do the groceries, laundry, shopping. Like him, I put my life in boxes. Everything is organized in boxes and baskets. I'm married now, I have decorations in our home for example, but they also have their boxes I just chuck them in when I need. This guy rotates clothes. We do that too. We have our going out clothes and the everyday clothes that we rotate (gym clothes included). We also go around thinking of ways to make our lives more effective/organized and how to get rid of things, but we are not minimalists. (The way he held his phone. My guy is young!)
