Do you know what a flat design is?

In fact, in reality, flat design refers to those who have abandoned the popular years of gradient, shadow, highlight and other visual effects, and then create a look more "flat" interface. One of the advantages of a flat style is that it can be more straightforward to show how information and things work, and thus reduce the emergence of cognitive impairment.

As many platforms and applications on the Web cover a growing number of different screen sizes, it is tedious and time-consuming to create skeuomorphic designs with multiple screen sizes and resolutions. While design is moving toward a more flat design, you can guarantee It will look good on all screen sizes at once. and flat design more simple, clear, and the most important point is that the flat design has a better adaptability.

Compared with the flat design, at present also can say before the most popular is the skeuomorphic design, to say the most typical is the Apple iOS system in the physical design, let us feel the virtual objects and physical proximity. But in the flat design of the current to say the most powerful example is the Win8 Metro interface, have to say, Microsoft is worthy of the PC user experience pioneers, such as their bold attempt and implementation, have to let people admire.

We found that in the Win8 Metro interface, the full flat design was used; in Apple products and iOS systems, we saw some flattened design shadows, and in Google we also saw flat design patterns, and we had a good experience in Google, while in Win8 Metro is not so optimistic about the comments, so no matter what the design, the beauty of design is whether it is suitable, I dare not say that flat design is better than who, this is not black-white theory is not suitable. But I dare say that flat design in the website construction, web design has a very big advantage, simply say can make up for years of compatible criticism, I like flat design.
