Hey Harry, So Apple announced an all-new visual style coming to all their platforms 🤔 It's called Liquid Glass, and it looks like this: And it's pretty contentious: 🫲 ON ONE HAND... It looks great + feels fresh 😎 🫱 ON THE OTHER HAND... What happened to legibility? Plus, the flashy refractions put more focus on the background than the content 🤦♂️ – and isn't this a giant waste of GPU that will turn all but the newest iPhones into overheating lagfests!? 🔥 (OK, OK, maybe I'll withhold judgement until I use it 😉) In any case, Liquid Glass is technically impossible to re-create 100% in Figma, but I just published a tutorial on how to do the closest possible effect to Liquid Glass in Figma. I included the why behind each step, so you can modify as your design needs. (If you're interested in the finer details of lighting and material, check it out 😎) Cheers, PS. Congrats to Lucy W. of London, England, who won access to Learn UI Design for participating in my survey earlier this week. Check your email 🎉 Anyhow, I'll be using frequently-requested topics from the survey to publish some tutorials in the weeks ahead. Stay tuned! 🫡 |
