MOBILE PHONE: style?

In designing the mobile phone I want to respect a coherent style balancing between my ideas and what the contemporary scene of design shows. My being honest consists in admitting that some of my choices are dependent to what I consider contemporary design and to what I think people would appreciate, avoiding my total freedom, as proof that design differs from art.
Sometimes when I'm really worried about the style of my design, my first strength is in doing something that people would love, this is part of design and a good opportunity to think about the business of design.
A trend in contemporary design is minimalism, and colours like withe and satinate silver seem to be the right mix in creating something with a present value.
Usually in my design process I feel the due to respect these trends, trying to find balance between my ideas, my tastes, my style and what the contemporary scene would appreciate.
