Semi Flat&nbsp;Design<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--h3\">Starting from semi flat we hit the mark because it\u2019s our main focus. Some new trends are a&nbsp;<strong class=\"markup--strong markup--p-strong\">\u201cblast from the past\u201d<\/strong>&nbsp;and we\u2019re sure they won\u2019t live long. Some of them we\u2019ve been using since the dawn of time. And some new trends have no use in our work so we\u2019ve retained only those which are effective for us. But semi flat is a good starting point in UI of financial trading platforms, where we can provide good illustrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_KvaDrWF-7ZJ48_YtuJb0pg.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_KvaDrWF-7ZJ48_YtuJb0pg-1024x576.png\" alt=\"trading platform UI\" class=\"wp-image-811\" srcset=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_KvaDrWF-7ZJ48_YtuJb0pg-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_KvaDrWF-7ZJ48_YtuJb0pg-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_KvaDrWF-7ZJ48_YtuJb0pg-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_KvaDrWF-7ZJ48_YtuJb0pg.png 1800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 959px) calc(100vw - 30px), 870px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--figure\">Graphics hardware and CPU are more powerful today. We\u2019ve moved away from flat colors because of information overload during trading activities. Now shadows are big enough to help distinguish several information layers, to show an object\u2019s dominance over others by emphasizing it with another color or shadow. This is how the user sees the screen now: a new layer is visually above and doesn\u2019t fade into other layers or a background, so they can understand what to look at first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--p\">Semi-flat is definitely not new to us as we\u2019ve always been using it. Flat design never entirely prevailed, as some volume was always needed. But I would advise you not to use it everywhere. In several current projects (examples are ahead) we\u2019ve moved forward into more graphic diversity. Among these elements are gradients, feathering, and blur. For control elements, we\u2018ve used thin shadows or highlighting to indicate they\u2019re clickable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--p\">There is a special term\u200a\u2014\u200a<strong class=\"markup--strong markup--p-strong\">affordance<\/strong>. Affordance is a visual clue to further use and functions of an item. For example, a button looks like an element to press or a call to action, hyperlinks are in the blue familiar color and underlined, there are easily recognizable metaphors behind icons\u200a\u2014\u200a\u201c+\u201d, \u201c?\u201d, \u201ci\u201d, etc., cursor types, and so on. So the user is not forced to think about what he is expected to do next. This is where semi-flat serves well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--p\">For Android, semi-flat works perfectly because we do our projects according to their producers\u2019 guides\u200a\u2014\u200awe use their Native Development Kit to program the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_qYNmWA6QxDGKTXTfbynfFQ.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"717\" src=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_qYNmWA6QxDGKTXTfbynfFQ-1024x717.png\" alt=\"trading platform UI\" class=\"wp-image-812\" srcset=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_qYNmWA6QxDGKTXTfbynfFQ-1024x717.png 1024w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_qYNmWA6QxDGKTXTfbynfFQ-300x210.png 300w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_qYNmWA6QxDGKTXTfbynfFQ-768x538.png 768w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_qYNmWA6QxDGKTXTfbynfFQ.png 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 959px) calc(100vw - 30px), 870px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_5pL26mVFuyN_DSUFDqdPPQ.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"560\" src=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_5pL26mVFuyN_DSUFDqdPPQ-1024x560.png\" alt=\"trading platform UI\" class=\"wp-image-810\" srcset=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_5pL26mVFuyN_DSUFDqdPPQ-1024x560.png 1024w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_5pL26mVFuyN_DSUFDqdPPQ-300x164.png 300w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_5pL26mVFuyN_DSUFDqdPPQ-768x420.png 768w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_5pL26mVFuyN_DSUFDqdPPQ.png 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 959px) calc(100vw - 30px), 870px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"graf graf--h3 graf-after--figure wp-block-heading\" id=\"b7aa\">2. 3D<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--h3\">3D is ideal for advertising, merchandising, and making posters and promo materials stand out. But 3D has only recently come into use in trading systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--p\">We know clients have questions about three-dimensional graphs. We emphasize caution, because we care about information accuracy. In trading platforms people deal with big money; if they misread information they can make a wrong decision. This is why 90% of graphs are 2D, which they\u2019re familiar with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_2Yhmp8Or-a7NxrVvDj0lyA.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"544\" src=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_2Yhmp8Or-a7NxrVvDj0lyA-1024x544.jpeg\" alt=\"AR trading platform\" class=\"wp-image-817\" srcset=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_2Yhmp8Or-a7NxrVvDj0lyA-1024x544.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_2Yhmp8Or-a7NxrVvDj0lyA-300x159.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_2Yhmp8Or-a7NxrVvDj0lyA-768x408.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1_2Yhmp8Or-a7NxrVvDj0lyA.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 959px) calc(100vw - 30px), 870px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1__DHGcl90WLEjQ6i5PWQwUQ.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1__DHGcl90WLEjQ6i5PWQwUQ-300x159.jpeg\" alt=\"trading platform in the augmented reality\" class=\"wp-image-816\" width=\"572\" height=\"303\" srcset=\"https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1__DHGcl90WLEjQ6i5PWQwUQ-300x159.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1__DHGcl90WLEjQ6i5PWQwUQ-768x408.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1__DHGcl90WLEjQ6i5PWQwUQ-1024x544.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/devexperts.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/06\/1__DHGcl90WLEjQ6i5PWQwUQ.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 959px) calc(100vw - 30px), 870px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>AR trading interface by Devexperts<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>There is one good example of 3D though\u200a\u2014\u200aa volatility surface in 3D.

Now the trend lies in using vibrant hues. And we see no reason against this: it\u2019s done to stand out, to attract attention, to look tasty, to advertise itself. But still our first priority as a UX\/UI design team is to solve a task. If a client works at night and they don\u2019t need bright colors on a black screen, we\u2019ll adopt a less vibrant\/more calm color design to meet their request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--p\">The advantage of this trend is that several unavoidable colors keep everything in one style. The disadvantage is we can\u2019t step aside If we think that we used these colors too much, so we are restricted in color choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--p\">Although the usage of gradients is possible, it can be even complex gradients consisting of 3 or 4 hues nearby in the color spectrum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--p\">Interface color choice should be based on human preferences. People like colors which can be found in nature\u200a\u2014\u200afrom a rainbow to shadows and reflections\u200a\u2014\u200abecause we\u2019re used to them.

Color set is a starting point, because the logo position is already established. In both white labeling and custom solutions, an animated logo can only show up during page loading to make the wait shorter, so this is a single-time animation. If the logo stays animated for the whole time the user is working in the application, it can disturb their eyes and pull attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"graf graf--h3 graf-after--p wp-block-heading\" id=\"2844\">13.
