i think for maybe 30 years all consumer electronics were kind of designed in a "sony style", and then at some point between 2005 and 2015 it changed to an "apple style" and i haven't really found them as appealing ever since then. just dont really look like anything. no features. no labels. no ports. no buttons. nothing. not worth buying

when i look at the classic designs of dieter rams. i dont like them. i dont think they look particularly good. the spacing and size of the elements, and their arrangement relative to one another, isn't very pleasing to me personally. i feel like they look inscrutable, geometric, clinical. the large blank spaces are probably the most off-putting feature: they bring to mind content-sparse page layouts of the interior design trade press, lonely and windy modernist public spaces, or 2010s web design
