Explanation:
В определенном контексте можно и просто simple, simplistic. Предложение придется формулировать тоже в контексте, обтекая русское "решено".

https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Минимализм_(дизайн)
Минимализм (англ. minimalism от лат. minimus — наименьший) — стиль в дизайне, характеризующийся лаконичностью выразительных средств, простотой, точностью и ясностью композиции.

Minimalist architecture, sometimes referred to as 'minimalism', involves the use of simple design elements, without ornamentation or decoration. Proponents of minimalism believe that condensing the content and form of a design to its bare essentials, reveals the true 'essence of architecture'.

Это нормальный профессиональный термин, laconic звучит неестественно на американское ухо.

neutral  Boris Shapiro: Согласен с вами и Фрэнком насчёт лаконичности. // Я не несогласен. Просто недостаточно уверен в "минимализме". Слишком люблю соотв. жанр музыки, а в него, имхо, отнюдь не любое "лаконичное" произведение можно записать. Вот и остерегаюсь - по аналогии.
