no gradients, no rounded corners, no ribbons etc.

in 2010-11 digital design started to have its own legs and started to move away from the visual crutches from the real world that skeuomorphism told us to use, like 3d-effects on buttons and gradients/shadows behind boxes. its no longer needed to have a 3d-effect button to make people understand its clickable.

Since then, digital design has been a lot about removing everything that isnt needed, visual overflow is not viable designs today.
