ABSTRACT

Skeuomorphism was the style that lead the user interface design for a long time since the GUI was popularized by the general users. As the era of smartphone began, critics argued that overly decorative elements of skeuomorphism hinder usability. Today the trend of user interface design has changed to flat design. Nonetheless, skeuomorphism is still used to describe new and unfamiliar concepts. In this study, we will discuss the characteristics of skeuomorphism through simulacrum continuous theory, and discuss how skeuomoprhism have been used in mobile interface design and what significance has it in future mobile interface design trends.
