Reading

What remains after the inessential is taken away.

Form grows clearer not by adding, but by leaving out.

When the surplus is set aside, what is left begins to speak.

Origin

A non-Zen entry. The phrase first appears in Robert Browning's poem "Andrea del Sarto" (1855), and was later taken up by the architect Mies van der Rohe as a principle of modernist design.

Seal

The original seal is hand-carved in Tokyo by the artist Satake Hōsen. Its impression is reproduced as a print on the garment.
