My
opinion of the current design situation is mainly that by catering to a
technology and modern community we may be able to successfully do
business with this type.
For
example a great believer in the modern design is the company Apple
after passing Exxon Mobil they are now the most valuable company in the
United States. If we look a t a majority of their designs we see a
underlying simple modernism that caters towards all types of people.
Another example in this case is the Iphone many people use them and
they look very modern.
This shows there may a current trends in these modern phones. This might be a good thing to copy that scheme.
There
can also be some thing learned from animated series Star Wars the Clone
Wars in modern design. Though it may be a bit childish it has some
great space age aesthetics. It shows a good example of modernism.
A great color would probably be silver or metallic because of the great many produucts it is included in today ( to harken back to my mentioning of apple products ) and would probably be good.
