There is a simple elegance to even the most basic of barns.

I’ve stared at them for years trying to figure out why my eye is drawn to them, while at the same time I am so repulsed by most of the new homes being built today.

Is it the simple basic lines? or perhaps, the lack of faux embellishments? or does it have nothing to do with the design, but rather with what these old structures represent?… a simpler time, a time when humans were more in tune with nature, with animals, and with other people.
