Ask HN: Is flat design for people who can't design?
I've looking at iOS 7 and many other flat design works. The biggest question in my mind is flat design for people who just can't design and whom are looking for an easy way out?
- wyck 13y agoFlat design is flat because your looking at a 2-d surface. Making 2-d surfaces which are typically words and "things" that separate words look 3-d is not that important. Design is hard regardless of the dimensions, implied or otherwise.
- jacksondeane 13y ago"Flat" is simply an aesthetic style. To me, it does not require any more or less skill to produce compared to other design trends (Web 2.0, Skeuomorphism, ect). Flat design not new and it is not a cop-out.
