Material Design Awards

Last week’s Google I/O conference in San Francisco saw the launch of a new initiative by Google Design.

The Material Design Awards encourage and recognize excellence in applying material design in the creation of engaging user experiences, and are highlighted in a collection on the Google Play store. The six winners honored with the award represent best-in-class applications of specific aspects of material design.

Manual designed and produced a set of solid Corian awards, drawing from the material design visual language and color palette.

The winning awards went to New York Times, Tumblr, Pocket, Weather Timeline, Pocket Casts, and B&H Photo Video Pro Audio.
