Paul,  I appreciate your efforts to define my life for me, but kindly allow
me the honor.  Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and there is simply no
one universal set of rules which will guarantee success as a "beautiful" item.

Besides, to me, an ugly-but-functional item is far more lovely than some
Yuppie-toy which doesn't work worth a damn.  (I have about 500,000 miles
driving VW Beetles, guys.  Function beats from, every time.  Minimalist
rules.)
