I do agree on that part, but a design in my opinion doesn't convey anything. People see what they want to see in it, based on their personality and experience. As you said, some like minimalism for its purity while others find it boring and soul-less.An example: audio gears. I do not consider myself as an audiophile, I am more a music eater in the way that music feeds my soul. Most audio stuff are over designed and forget their prime role: playing music. When I listen to music, I close my eyes and try to shut down all my other sense as much as possible, so that I only feel the music. I do not care how the speakers, amp, cans or sources look like. It is even more important with speakers as materials and shapes alter the sound produced by them. You can't go too creative with them.Again, people will see what they want to see, not what I wanted to show them.Because if you want the buttons to feel thin, you need a flat or near-flat surface. Else their edges will feel like protruding too much.
