My question for Chinese people:
From what I have seen, Chinese people tend to have very clean, but very plain houses and yards. Extremely simple and under-decorated, yet maintained to the highest degree.
Why is this?

fung shui may be a factor in this case, but a lot of chinese families usually decorate their houses with elaborate chinese artwork. Like paintings of bamboo and birds and dragons and pheonixes. however, some chinese can't be bothered with artwork, and it has nothing to do with fung shui.
I do know that asians like to maintain things. So that's probably why things look brand new...there's also another reason...the saran wrap lol
I'm surprised that no one mentions the way chinese folks would wrap up pretty much everything in saran wrap (such as remote controls, stove tops, furniture...etc).
