The new design guides from Material Design

Material Design is a design language that was integrated for the first time two years ago in the Android update that has become known as Lollipop. A language that advocates flat colors and clear and specific animations that have managed to take this OS for mobile devices to another level.

Days ago, the new material design guides which, among some other tips, offers enough clarity for the importance of "Motion", as it is translated from this design language and that makes a transition have great visual quality.

"Motion" in the world of Material Design translates as a way to describe relationships in spaces, functionality and intention with beauty and fluidity. Knowing its meaning we can go on to know its importance.

"Motion" shows how organized an application is and what it can do. Provide clues to what may happen if a user completes a gesture, space relationships and hierarchy between different elements and character.

Google clarifies that Material Design offers an environment that carries to be inspired by the real forces of nature, such as gravity and friction. These forces are reflected in the way the user's gestures affect the elements on the screen or how they react to one another.

Material is energetic and responsive to actions of the user precisely; it imitates the natural movement of forces such as those of gravity found in the real world; and is attentive to what is happening around him, which includes the user himself and the other Material elements around him, which can produce attraction to objects and respond appropriately.

Google also defines what makes a transition that has great quality. An interaction should not keep the user waiting longer than necessary, transitions should be clear and consistent and the Material elements must be unified by their speed, response and intention.

From the website itselfGoogle show clear examples of those new design guides.
