Matias Duarte talks Material Design

Google’s Vice President of Design Matias Duarte sat down with Gizmodo to discuss the thinking behind Material Design. Material Design is the theme that will debut in Android L and is available to be previewed as part of the Android Developer L Preview.

Material Design came out of the mindset that Google wanted to create something that would work for all screen sizes like smartwatches, cars, the TV, and even Chromebooks / laptops. So you can see, it isn’t just about Android phones and tablets anymore. Matias said, “We wanted it to be a design system that anybody can use to really express their brand and their identity and their needs and capabilities.”

At first it was a little difficult since there were three design teams working on it. Everyone had great ideas, but getting everyone to agree was the challenge. Then they asked themselves the question, “Alright, so, if you were to kind of pull the curtain back and look underneath, what is this thing we’re touching?” This lead them to notion of building something to be “continuous and have physics and motion just like the world around us. When we push something it slides and it has momentum then it stops, right? When we drop something it accelerates. If I push, motion radiates outward, when I clap the sound radiates outward. We wanted our world to have continuity of motion as well. Just enough for it make sense.”  This resulted in the birth of Material Design.

According to Matias, Material Design provides a “palate” than anyone can use to build the best possible experiences. It includes a lot of white space along with a lot of bright colors and animations that make it Googley. Not that previous versions of Android weren’t Googley, but this adds a little more sophistication.
