Material Design is a comprehensive guide for visual, motion, and interaction design across platforms and devices. The Android L Developer Preview provided new elements for building material design apps, including a material theme, RecyclerView and CardView widgets, and APIs for custom shadows and animations. Material design aims to create a unified user experience using principles of authentic motion, responsive interaction, meaningful transitions, and delightful details.

Android L Preview

15. Material Theme
The material theme provides a new style for our
app, system widgets that let us set their color
palette, and default animations for touch
feedback and activity transitions.

16. Material Design
● Universal platform design that functions across Android
Wear, Android TV, Android Auto, and all of Google’s
apps and services
● Making the whole device feel unified
● Its all about everything animation, but flat at the same
time
● Elevation value to any UI surface to get 3D effects by
virtual light sources and real time shadows

17. Material Theme
● Material Design
● Android RunTime (ART)
● Battery life (Project Volta)
● Security
● Multitasking and Recent App
● Notifications
● Many more...

18. New Widgets
The Android L Developer Preview includes two
new widgets for displaying complex views:
● The new RecyclerView widget is a More
advanced version of ListView.
● The new CardView widget lets us Important
pieces of information inside Cards that have
a consistent look and Feel.

19. View Shadows
In addition to the X and Y properties, views in the
Android L Developer have a Z property. This new
property represents the elevation of a view, which
determines:
● The size of the shadow - Views with higher Z
values cast bigger shadows.
● The drawing order - Views with higher Z values
appear on top of other views.

20. Animations
● The Android L Developer provides new APIs
that let us to create custom animations for touch
feedback in UI controls, view state changes,
and activity transitions.
● Touch feedback animations are built into
several standard views such as buttons.
● The new APIs let us customize these
animations and add animations to our custom
views

21. Animations
The new animation APIs let us:
● Respond to touch events in our views with touch
feedback animations.
● Hide and show views with reveal effect animations.
● Switch between activities with custom activity transition
animations.
● Create more natural animations with curved motion.
● Show animations in state list drawables between view
state changes.

22. Principles of Material
● Design Material is the metaphor : A material
metaphor is the unifying theory of a rationalized space
and a system of motion.
● Bold, graphic, intentional : These elements do far
more than please the eye; they create hierarchy,
meaning, and focus.
● Motion provides meaning : Motion is meaningful and
appropriate, serving to focus attention and maintain
continuity.

23. Animation has four contents
● Authentic Motion
● Responsive Interaction
● Meaningful Transitions
● Delightful Details

24. Animation
● Authentic Motion
Perceiving an object's tangible form helps us
understand how to manipulate it. Observing an object's
motion tells us whether it is light or heavy, flexible or
rigid, small or large.
● Contents
Mass and Weight: Physical objects have mass and
move only when forces are applied to them.Objects
can’t start or stop instantaneously.

25. Animation
● Responsive Interaction
Responsive interaction builds trust with the user and engages them. It
is thoughtful and purposeful, not random, and can be gently whimsical
but never distracting.
In material design, apps are responsive to and eager for user input:
● Touch, voice, mouse and keyboard are all first-class input methods
● Although UI elements appear tangible, they are locked behind a layer
of glass

26. Animation(Responsive Interaction)
Surface Reaction One way to express this acknowledgment is
through the ink metaphor, the dynamic display surface that coats
every sheet of paper.

27. Animation(Responsive Interaction)
● Material Response
● In addition to ink-like actions on the surface, the material itself
can also respond to interaction.
● The material can lift up when touched or clicked, indicating an
active state.
● Material appears from touch point.
● Paper appears from center of screen, breaking relationship with
input.

28. Animation(Responsive Interaction)
Meaningful Transitions
● It can sometimes be difficult for a user to know where to focus
their attention in an app or how an app element got from point A
to point B.
● Motion design should not only be beautiful, but serve a functional
purpose.

29. Examples
Visual Continuity
● Transitioning between two visual states should be smooth,
appear effortless, and above all, provide clarity to the user, not
confusion.
A transition has three categories of elements:
● Incoming elements
● Outgoing elements
● Shared elements

30. Animation(Meaningful Transitions)
Hierarchical Timing
● When building a transition, consider both the order in which
elements move and the timing of their movement.
● It Ensure that motion supports the information hierarchy.

31. Animation(Meaningful Transitions)
Consistent Choreography
● As transitioning elements move around the screen.
● They should behave in a coordinated manner.

32. Animation(Meaningful Transitions)
Delightful Details
● Animation can exist within all components of an app and at all
scales, from finely detailed icons to key transitions and actions.
● All elements work together to construct a seamless experience
and a beautiful, functional app.

33. What were the goals?

34. …synthesize the classic
principles of good design
with the innovation and
possibility of technology and
science…

35. …single underlying
system that allows for a
unified experience
across all platforms…

36. …touch, voice, mouse
and keyboard are all
first-class input
methods…
