Simplicity, not just in form, but in attitude

There are many things I like in this picture; the large dining set, the concrete floor, the simple furnishings, and especially the low maintenance corrugated metal walls, and the garage door walls that, when opened, blur the line between indoors and outdoors. What I like most though is the general attitude captured in the image; that creating livable, beautiful, and comfortable places does not require fancy items, stroking egos, or other fluff.
