‘Flat web design and skeuomorphism: the pros and cons’ – ‘Econsultancy’ Blog
The latest ‘Econsultancy’ blog post is titled “Flat web design and skeuomorphism: the pros and cons”.
Robert Yardy says, “Flat web design and skeuomorphism are two design approaches that could not be more different. In terms of opposites we’re talking a level equal to Take That vs. Slipknot, Barcelona FC vs. Accrington Stanley, The Godfather vs. Legally Blonde, basically, they are not similar!
Microsoft and Apple have been at the centre of this design battle and fans of both companies have been equally passionate in their arguments for the pros of their particular approach for more than a year.
However, in terms of the future, short term at least, one ‘team’ seems to have been victorious. But is this a defeat, or is the supposed defeated team actually happy to lose the battle knowing that they shall win the war? I’m talking profits!”.
