I would love to admit that I might've created a build style where there are these rectangular buildings held up by posts, making use of random materials, but at the same time, I have the superstition that it already exists and I just don't know the name of it.

I had a final project assignment being trash art (which the name sounds misleading but it called for putting together art pieces using random recyclable objects that we find), and made three abstract pieces with random materials. The assignment had allowed me to make random things without going over the top with it or thinking heavily about it; I simply shut my mind off and just went with doing.

This really inspired me to channel this into a no-plan "method" for my building style by [progressively] making this these buildings in my SMP world, using random blocks that I find. I may have a plan for the shape of the buildings, but I mostly forego caring about how it'll look before or during the building process as I feel like thinking over doing stimulates overthinking in a bad way.

Because I'm more of a minimalist, this fits with that, as within a community of people who are loud enough to go over the top with their builds to make something very complex but sometimes very convoluted (not that it's a bad thing to me, but I might have a hard time keeping my eyes from darting everywhere), I'm passively one who's "louder than the noise" by making builds that are simplified to their necessary limit, meaning that I only put in things that I think matter for the build.
