KISS
KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid!) is a design philosophy that favors simplicity, solutions that are as as simple as possible to achieve given task, and no more. This comes from the fact that higher complexity comes with increasing negative effects such as cost of development, cost of maintenance, greater probability of bugs and security vulnerabilities. More about this in minimalism article.
Compared to suckless, unix philosophy and LRS, KISS is a more general term, it doesn't imply any specifics but rather the general overall idea of simplicity being an advantage (less is more).
KISS Linux is an example of software developed under this philosophy.
