Museums are clean, minimal, perhaps even beautiful. The items inside, however, are often anything but..
Beauty - or that look designers often refer to as such - is not an end unto itself. For those outside of our little aesthetically driven world, that idea of beauty is often met with "so what?".
You can probably make an argument for or against the Google logo here on QBN. But beyond this place (and like places, and of course, Google) you'll be hard pressed to find anyone who really cares.
Many designers are in the business of creating things for other designers. Hoping to put out something that will garner praise from their brethren. The problem is... sometimes the client really wants a logo that reminds them of the circus (what the Google logo makes me think of). It brings them joy.
There is a fine line between Informed Guidance and Arrogance. If "ugly" puts a smile on your client's face and pays your rent, then sometimes it is better.- I never saw the google logo that way... I'm not sure if I can unsee it that way nowkalkal
