Abandoned excess impurities and disorder, material design only need to retain its most primitive pure form, spatial relationship, change and transition, with the flexible nature of the virtual world, restore the most real experience, to achieve the effect of simple and intuitive.

No messy colors, generally choose a main color with a backing color. Use color variations to create more multi-colors. “ Darker color variations are made by lowering brightness and increasing saturation.
