Apple, Glass & Optimism: Reflections on Liquid Glass

Apple is currently going through its biggest User Interface evolution since the 2013 to 2014 transition from photo-illustrative design to the more precise and minimal design philosophy that carries its products up to today. I started off being very excited about the change. But then, as time went on and as I’ve used some of the software, I’ve grown some concerns. However they might not be what you expect. This is a video in three parts about Apple, Liquid Glass and Optimism in 2025. I share my thoughts and feelings on the current state of Apple’s user interfaces and design history. Thank you for watching!
