【Reference Specifications】

Part I: Positive Case Analysis (Common Traits of Good Design)

These excellent interfaces achieve a leap from "tool" to "artwork" through extreme simulation of physical materials, creation of immersive atmospheres, and strong visual stylization:

1. Design Style:

• Handmade/Felt Style: Emphasizes tactile warmth, irregular edges, and fibrous textures.
• Sticker Illustration Style: Emphasizes thick outlines, high-contrast colors, and the feel of paper/plastic stickers.
• Retro Skeuomorphism: Emphasizes a sense of history and physical materials.
• Hyper-realistic Minimalism: e.g., the "Salary Clock" app.

1. Visual Hierarchy:

• Interface-as-Hardware: e.g., the riveted wooden texture of a "Poster Workshop" app.
• Object-as-Hero: e.g., the stones in "Zen Ripples"; the moon in "Lunar Journal"; the glass piggy bank in "Salary Clock". For instance, "Instant Fortune" centers around a 3D plush doll, establishing a strong emotional connection through its highly tactile material expression.
• Physical Backdrop & Narrative Space: e.g., the corkboard in "Foodie Map"; the black background in "Mixology Master". A new example, "Instant Fortune," uses a full-screen red long-fleece background, completely shattering the coldness of traditional digital interfaces.
• Environmental Integration & Sense of Depth: e.g., the full-screen real-world scene in a "Snowy Magic Brush" app. A new example, "What's Next," combines a dynamic firework background with-a foreground illustrated horse, using layering to create a festive, celebratory space.

1. Color Palette:

• Atmospheric Contrast: e.g., the pure black in "Lunar Journal". New examples "What's Next" and "Instant Fortune" both use large areas of Chinese red and gold, directly conveying festive joy and energy through high-saturation color combinations.
• Pristine & Sophisticated: e.g., the minimalist white of "Salary Clock".
• Cultural Narrative & Material Color: e.g., the off-white paper feel of "This Day in History".
• 3D High-Saturation Festive Colors: e.g., the bright red and gold in a "Fortune Horse for Spring" app.

1. Layout & Rhythm:

• Non-linear Scrapbook Collage: e.g., the scrapbook mode of "Foodie Map".
• Centric & Floating: "Instant Fortune" places the core interactive object at the visual center and uses irregularly shaped, organic containers to enhance visual dynamism.
• Immersive Fullscreen Layout: "What's Next" hides the status bar or merges it with the background, turning the entire screen into a complete visual stage.
• Gallery Display: e.g., the high-end menu feel of "Mixology Master".

1. Component Detail:

• Feltmorphism: In "Instant Fortune," buttons and text exhibit a real felt embroidery texture, with fine fiber fuzz on the edges, greatly enhancing the sense of "touchability".
• Sticker & Die-cut Aesthetics: The horse in "What's Next" is outlined with a thick white border, simulating the visual effect of a physical sticker, adding fun and depth to the interface.
• Refractive & Transparent Materials: e.g., the glass in "Salary Clock".
• Physical Connectors & Tactility: e.g., the black capsule components in "This Day in History".

1. Typography:

• Textured Typography: "Instant Fortune" treats its title text with a plush embroidery effect, making the text itself part of the UI material.
• Artistic Title Design: "What's Next" applies bolding, strokes, and shadows to its title, making it clear and visually impactful even against a complex firework background.
• Serif Fonts & Professionalism: e.g., the humanistic feel in "Mixology Master".

Part II: Negative Case Analysis (Common Traits of Poor Design)

Negative examples exhibit a "sense of industrial cheapness" and a "lack of design thinking":

1. Lack of Visual Style:

• Emotional Void: An app like "College Entrance Exam Timer" should create a sense of companionship or urgency, but its cold UI feels dull to the user, completely failing to resonate emotionally.

1. Mediocre & Chaotic Color Palette:

• Gradient Chaos: e.g., the harsh gradients in a "Parkour" game.
• Saturated Block Stacking: e.g., the jarring color blocks in a "Shift Schedule Assistant".
• Paleness of Default White Background: Though named "Neon Calculator," it uses the most mundane pure white background, lacking any light or shadow effects, making it look extremely cheap.

1. Mechanical Layout (The Grid Trap):

• Generic Card Syndrome: e.g., "English Cloze Master," where bottom components are mechanically laid out flat, lacking narrative sense or dynamism.
• The Grid Trap: "Neon Calculator" is a classic example of the grid trap, mechanically tiling rounded-rectangle buttons with no visual focus or interactive metaphor, looking like an unfinished junior-level demo.
• Admin-Dashboard Syndrome: The "College Entrance Exam Timer" directly uses the most basic lists and cards, with no visual design tailored to the tense, serious, or motivational theme of the college entrance exam.

1. Unrefined Components:

• Default Control Overuse: "College Entrance Exam Timer" uses completely undesigned system default sliders and radio buttons, making the product look like a crude prototype.
• Visual Void: The "Neon Calculator" presents a sense of "emptiness" due to the lack of texture, shadow, and hierarchy.

1. Typography Disaster:

• Lack of Hierarchy & Aesthetics: Both "Neon Calculator" and "College Entrance Exam Timer" use system default fonts with uniform font sizes, failing to establish any information hierarchy (e.g., the calculation result should be emphasized).

Part III: Generation Guidance (UI Design Prompt Hierarchy Tree)

Root Node: General Principles

• Keywords: Material Metaphor, Tactile Texture, Feltmorphism, Sticker Aesthetics, Atmospheric Immersion, Non-linear Layout, Functional Skeuomorphism, Refractive Glass.
• Design Principles:
• Reject Generic Cards & Mechanical Grids: The use of "white background + rounded-rectangle" tiled layouts is strictly forbidden. Must introduce physical metaphors (e.g., plush backdrops, paper, hardware panels).
• Give Components a Tactile Feel: Make UI components look "touchable" by simulating felt fibers, sticker white borders, embroidery textures, or glass refraction.
• Eliminate the "Pasted-on" Look: Use multi-layered shadows and ambient occlusion (AO) to establish a component's real physical depth.

1. Humanity (Culture, History, Art): Level 2 General Principle

Design Principle: Pursue immersion, elegance, and tranquility. Use large areas of white space and asymmetrical layouts to enhance the design sense.

• 1.1 Classic Humanistic / Vintage Skeuomorphism: Use materials with period features (e.g., retro wood, parchment).
• 1.2 Gallery / Museum Mode: Large areas of pure black background; use professional photography-quality objects as the visual focus.
• 1.3 Memory / Archive Record: Simulate corkboards, scrapbook layouts; introduce subtle paper textures and grid backgrounds.
• 1.4 Traditional Ritual / Festive Sense:
• Design Principle: Use cultural colors like cinnabar red and rice gold. New Guideline: Introduce 3D plush materials (Feltmorphism) or a sticker style to add affinity and playfulness to festivals.
• 1.5 Pop / Dramatic Art: Use velvet curtains, halftone dot textures.

2. Science (STEM Education, Engineering, Code): Level 2 General Principle

Design Principle: Emphasize rigor, logic, and clarity. Use monospace or modern sans-serif fonts. High-contrast layout, with key data highlighted in bright colors (e.g., fluorescent green or tech blue). Use rigorous grid lines for decoration and a modular design.

• 2.1 Futurism / Digital Reinvention: Use a character matrix or code stream background.
• 2.2 Tactile Minimalism / Zen: Use hyper-realistic glass material (Refractive Glass) to carry the core metaphor.
• 2.3 Retro Tech / Radar Style: Introduce CRT scan lines, radar grids.
• 2.4 Scientific Realism: Perform hyper-realistic modeling of core objects.

3. Games (Game Interfaces, Fun Interactions): Level 2 General Principle

Design Principle: Emphasize fun, feedback, and immersion. Thick paint texture or skeuomorphism: Buttons must have a distinct click feel (3D texture, metallic or glowing edges). High-saturation color palettes and dynamic gradients. Highly decorated artistic title fonts. Low-quality outer glow effects on buttons are strictly forbidden.

• 3.1 Skeuomorphic Hardware Simulation: Simulate the entire UI as a physical device.
• 3.2 Clay / Soft Skeuomorphism: Simulate clay texture, add irregular edges.
• 3.3 Hand-drawn / Illustration Style: Use organic shapes and irregular edges. New Guideline: Use a "sticker-like" treatment, adding thick white outlines to illustrated elements to enhance their floating sensation.
• 3.4 Felt / Handmade Skeuomorphism:
• Design Principle: Simulate the fine fuzz of wool fibers; buttons and text should appear embroidered or sewn.
• 3.5 3D Festive / High-Gloss Skeuomorphism: Use high-quality 3D models; buttons should be in a high-glossy capsule shape.

4. Visualization (Data Visualization, Presentation): Level 2 General Principle

Design Principle: Intuitive, color-coded, and graphics-driven. Color Association: Different colors represent different dimensions, and colors must match psychological expectations. Simplify complex lines, use smooth Bézier curves.

• 4.1 Extreme Environment Immersion / Glassmorphism: Full-screen natural landscape background; UI components use ultra-high-transparency frosted glass.
• 4.2 Atmospheric / Emotional Interaction: Use a strong metaphorical object as the core of interaction.

5. Tools (Productivity Tools, Forms, Calculation): Level 2 General Principle

Design Principle: Efficiency first, easy to operate, no distractions. Large interactive hot zones: Buttons must be large and clear. Neumorphism: Suitable for simple tool interfaces to add a physical touch. Minimalist color scheme, using bright colors only for function trigger states.

• 5.1 High-end Asset Management: Use a core metaphorical object (e.g., a safe, a glass piggy bank) to contain data.
• 5.2 Hardware-ized Tools: Try to integrate tool functions into a simulated hardware device. Reject the "Calculator/Form Trap": Plain grid button layouts are strictly forbidden. System default sliders and empty cards are strictly forbidden. Even a calculator should simulate the texture of physical calculator keys or use a unique material theme.

6. Lifestyle (Health, Sports, Life Logging): Level 2 General Principle

Design Principle: Gentle, emotional, and personal. Introduce warm characters or lifestyle models. Rounded Treatment: Use very large corner radii (even full circles) to reduce aggressiveness. Soft gradient backgrounds (e.g., pastel colors). The use of messy gradients in functional areas is strictly forbidden; avoid empty layouts.

• 6.1 Healing / Organic Records: Use organic shapes (e.g., polygons, clouds) instead of rectangles.
• 6.2 Emotional Interaction: Introduce a first-person perspective.

【Scoring Rubric】 Your specific scoring criteria are as follows. You must grade strictly according to these standards, neither too high nor too low:

I. Exemplary (0.8-1.0)

Expert Summary: An exemplary interface is a "soulful entity"; it makes the user forget they are using software. The specific criteria are as follows:

1. Design Style: Exhibits stylistic extremity. For example, an extremely high standard of skeuomorphism, handmade feel, or hyper-realism, with strong artistic appeal.
2. Visual Hierarchy: Achieves an "interface-as-stage" effect. The Hero Object is highly compelling, guiding absolute visual focus through light, shadow, and spatial sense.
3. Layout & Rhythm: Adopts a non-linear/narrative layout. Breaks from conventional grids, using physical metaphors (like a corkboard or felt surface) for layout, resulting in a dynamic and sophisticated feel.
4. Color Palette: Employs ambient light-aware coloring. Color is not just a fill but carries texture and ambient color temperature, conveying a specific emotional warmth.
5. Component Detail: Pursues extreme detail/tactility. Components feature micro-fibers, physical seams, refractive gloss, looking "touchable."
6. Typography: Achieves textured/artistic typography. Text integrates with the background material (e.g., embroidery effect), and the layout has a gallery-level sense of rhythm.

II. Good (0.6-0.79)

Expert Summary: A good interface is a "polished digital product"; it is professional and beautiful but still feels like a tool. The specific criteria are as follows:

1. Design Style: Shows a clear style. Has a distinct visual theme but may lack a bit in consistency or uniqueness.
2. Visual Hierarchy: Achieves clear hierarchy. The visual focus is clear, but the handling of the relationship between secondary information and the core object can be slightly rigid.
3. Layout & Rhythm: Uses an immersive fullscreen layout. Effectively utilizes screen space to create an atmosphere, but some mechanical feeling may persist in component arrangement.
4. Color Palette: Uses an atmospheric color palette. Colors align with the theme's narrative (e.g., festive red, tech blue), with moderate contrast and a comfortable look.
5. Component Detail: Well-polished overall. Components are well-proportioned with basic light and shadow treatment, but the traces of digital processing are still visible.
6. Typography: Is professional and standardized. The font choice fits the theme, with well-considered kerning and line height, balancing readability and aesthetics.

III. Mediocre (0.40-0.59)

Expert Summary: A mediocre interface is a "standardized production part"; it completes its task but fails to create an emotional connection. The specific criteria are as follows:

1. Design Style: Has a vague style. Adopts a generic flat or card-based design, lacking distinctiveness and a design soul.
2. Visual Hierarchy: Only achieves a flat hierarchy. Relies on font size to differentiate levels, lacking depth created by contrast, space, or material.
3. Layout & Rhythm: Falls into the grid/card trap. Mechanically tiles rounded rectangles; the composition may be top-heavy or have large areas of ineffective empty space.
4. Color Palette: Uses a mediocre/harsh color palette. Employs basic gradients or stacks of high-saturation color blocks, lacking color hierarchy and sophistication.
5. Component Detail: Presents an industrial, cheap feel. Uses standard corner radii, shadows, and strokes, lacking unique textural polish.
6. Typography: Stays at basic typesetting. Only meets readability requirements, with a monotonous hierarchy and no visual impact or decorative treatment.

IV. Fail (0-0.39)

Expert Summary: A failing interface is "unprocessed raw material"; it is merely a visual representation of logic, lacking any design intervention. The specific criteria are as follows:

1. Design Style: No style. A pure agglomeration of functions, appearing as raw, default system styles.
2. Visual Hierarchy: Chaotic hierarchy. Information priority is unclear, or the visual focus is absent due to a lack of embellishment.
3. Layout & Rhythm: A typical mechanical admin-panel layout. Directly applies the most basic lists and forms with no aesthetic consideration for composition.
4. Color Palette: A color disaster/vacuum. Large areas of default white or jarring, harsh color blocks, with no color harmony whatsoever.
5. Component Detail: Overuse of native controls. Directly uses system default input fields, buttons, and sliders without any custom design.
6. Typography: A typography disaster. Font sizes are uniformly distributed with no emphasis, or the font clashes severely with the overall style.
