Neumorphic
Soft extruded shapes with dual inner and outer shadows.
What it is
Neumorphism renders controls as if pressed from a single surface, using paired light and dark shadows for a soft, tactile feel. Striking, but contrast and accessibility need care.
When to use
Calm, tactile dashboards and audio or smart-home UIs where a soft physical feel suits the brand.
When not to
Anywhere accessibility matters most — low contrast between elements can fail WCAG and confuse affordance.
