Are you seriously asking about that? Never heard of scandinavian design?

And about current desing of touchphones? IMO anyone. Yes anyone could do that shait. Itīs like letīs put this 3-4 inch screen and welllllll letīs try different materials and different corners and maybe keyboard or not. Ohh wow that pure genius. Every touchphone looks like one another to me. Little things but currently UI of smartphone has come the one aspect of design of whole product. Not a long ago it was how you place keyboard and man there was different approaches to that.

Iīm not saying that current design is bad but I do not see it as it needs any expertise. Next thing that might make things different are foldable and rollable displays.
