Many of us have experienced new limitations over the past year. They point to an end and a new beginning. They awaken in us an appreciation of the small, the simple, the minimalised. In a social environment where populations and property prices continue to rise, we’re also increasingly seeing an inner desire for minimalism and renunciation. What does the increasing relevance of 'Tiny Living' tell us about the old game where there were no limits? What is the motivation behind people's decision to live in small spaces? And what sort of free spaces do we need for a meaningful life? tinyBE invites you to a lively discussion between experts from art and architecture, science and entrepreneurship.
