Liquid Glass
A new visual design language introduced by Apple at WWDC 2025. Its core characteristics are dynamic translucent UI elements that simulate the optical properties of physical glass and liquid, including light refraction effects. It is widely regarded as the most significant overhaul of Apple's interface aesthetic since iOS 7.
