Hmm not so sure about that. I think there’s something to be found in this discussion. Plato talks about the good, the true and the beautiful. He said that “the beautiful is easy to discern”. So perhaps there are elements and patterns to beauty and even good design. But yes, there is a degree of subjectivity 

 Yeah you are right the good and the true and the beautiful are real. But still we don't appreciate them all the same way that's the subjective part. I think most of the times isn't easy to discern, it needs a lot of time and training. 😁  

 Agreed: time and training. They say time is the greatest teacher, but it kills all of its students. 

 beauty is in the eye of the beholder
