What is material design?
● Material design is a visual language that synthesizes classic principles of good design with the innovation and possibility of technology and science.
● It was inspired by the study of paper and ink, yet technologically advanced and open to imagination and magic.

Tangible: material is a metaphor
● Surfaces and edges of the material provide visual cues that are grounded in reality.
● The use of familiar tactile attributes helps users quickly understand affordances.

Print-like Design: bold, graphic & intentional
● Typography, grids, space, scale, color, and use of imagery do far more than please the eye, they create hierarchy, meaning, and focus.
● Deliberate choices and intentional white space create a bold and graphic interface.

Motion provides meaning
● Motion respects and reinforces the user as the prime mover.
● Motion is meaningful and appropriate, serving to focus attention and maintain continuity.
● Feedback is subtle yet clear. ● Transitions are efficient yet coherent.
