Apple's new design language, dubbed 'liquid glass,' has sparked concerns not only around accessibility but also its environmental impact. This design, which utilizes live blur and motion effects, heavily demands GPU resources, thus increasing energy consumption in devices like smartphones and laptops. The implications extend beyond Apple products to webpages using similar visual treatments, leading to higher energy use due to real-time rendering demands. As millions of users adopt such features, the cumulative energy impact raises alarms about sustainability and the focus on aesthetics over functionality.
Apple's latest 'liquid glass' design, though visually appealing, raises significant environmental concerns due to increased GPU energy consumption without functional benefits.
The reliance on motion effects in Apple's liquid glass design may not only strain user accessibility but also contribute to increased global energy usage.
