Tech/Engineering - Architecture / landscaping
English term or phrase: translate to
An example of how minimalism can *translate to* the countryside environment. This scene gives the appearance of nature, but the components have all been introduced in a regular pattern.

Ist eine Bildunterschrift.

Ist der Satz ok? Und was bedeutet er? wie Minimalismus in der Umgebung umgesetzt werden kann? Aber dann stimmt der Satz doch nicht, oder?
