Damn, I like the way that looks. I get why it's catching on! I think this could quickly go from "really awesome" to "super awful" pretty quickly if you didn't have a professional designer working on it, though. Overcrowding seems like it would be worse in this style than in others we've seen get popular over the years.

It seems to look a lot like win 95 to me, but rounded and blurred edges! (NW is lighter add SE is darker, & inverted logic when it's depressed) I recall a comment in some other HN thread the other day about how win 95 was the pinnacle of ux progression and how nothing seems to have really progressed since. I totally agree that it looks good, & could go crazy wrong, very easily.

  > & could go crazy wrong, very easily The introductory post itself shows how easy it is to still mix up cards and buttons in this new style.

  Windows 95 had hard bevelled edges. Neumorphism has the opposite.
