This is what happens when high design meets the real world. As much as it pains designers to realise, most people have shitty taste and as such, there are times when compromises must be made to get them on board. As Reichenstein notes, for most consumer-targeted UIs, users won't even give your serious design a chance if it lacks a bit of eye candy. You'll just have to find some kind of balance.

What does it even mean that "most people have shitty taste"? I guess it's easy to agree with that on an emotional level because taste is so varied. There is always bound to be a large number of people that you don't agree with in taste. That is completely subjective though, those people will probably find your taste shitty.
