What puzzles me (being a casual observer) is that post-modern commercialism does not seem to affect all design domains equally. I would say that e.g. current automobile design seems to have still fairly identifiable style propositions (whether I like them being a different matter).

The forces of safety/market standards that an automobile must conform to is combining with capabilities of the materials available.

Multi-dwelling housing above 5 units will also show this same phenomenon.

Coffee makers could be very dynamic market due to fewer dependencies.
