Very soon, Apple will present to the public a new design of its mobile OS called iOS 7. This event will happen literally in a month, and many designers try to predict how the new design will actually look like.

Recently, information has surfaced on the net that the updated design will differ radically from the previous one, it will become more "flat" and devoid of realistic textures.
German designer Christian Liu decided to showcase his vision for the new look of iOS 7. He himself called it "lightweight, inspired by aluminum." The beloved shiny, glossy, three-dimensional icons, switches and other interface elements in his concept Christian replaced with flat shapes devoid of shadows and gloss.

Forstall's place was taken by Jonathan Ive, who previously came up with the appearance and design of the iPhone, iPad, iMac. Ive is an adherent of minimalism in design, his iOS design will be maximally simplified, devoid of realism, it will become “flat”. Surely many users will not like the updated design. However, Apple's management does not care about this fact. Tim Cook says this about Ive:
