Modern Design vs Flat Design :: Arturo Toledo /AND/ Interaction '14 highlights
Details
In just a few short years, design for screens has gone from richly detailed to restrained, minimal and clean.
Arturo Toledo (http://www.toledo2.com/biography/) played a key part in spreading the word about Microsoft's new design language (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/news/stories/design/) to the worldwide design and development communities
In this talk he will present the real source and inspiration behind what many call 'flat' design.
Arturo will take us beyond how things 'look' and into a deeper look at the use of a grid, typography, fierce reduction of elements, less and more as well as immersive depth on the X, Y and Z axis to design modern user interfaces.
Join us for an exploration of the Design Principles that gave shape to Modern Design in the 20th century. Masters like Vignelli, Rams, Müller Brockman and Barragán and experience putting these Principles in action to design user interfaces for phone, tablet, desktop or TV experiences today.
We'll also share design samples and stories from the Modern Design workshop that Arturo will be holding on February 17 & 18.
We'll also share highlights from Interaction '14 conference (http://interaction14.ixda.org) in Amsterdam. Stay tuned!
