6.

* Use the following designs for inspiration only. Please do not copy the designs.
1. Two-dimensional elements
Avoid the use of depth or 3D effects like shadows, bevels, and gradients.
Use solid-colored shapes and icons.
2. Bold, solid colors
Use solid colors with a focus on primary colors, bright hues, and contrasting tones.
Gradients and textures are minimized or excluded entirely in favor of flat, uniform color schemes.
To create a shadow effect, a slightly darker color can be applied.
3. Simplified icons and shapes
Use simplified, geometric shapes, and minimalistic icons to represent objects.
Avoid the use of black borders or outlines.
4. Minimal typography
Use simple and easy-to-read fonts to complement the clean, straightforward aesthetic.
5. No realistic textures or shadows
Unlike older design styles that used textures to create a sense of realism, flat design avoids this by using flat, smooth surfaces without drop shadows or other three-dimensional cues.
