That’s why we’re going to walk you through a few great examples of skeuomorphic design, the theory behind skeumorphism, and why you might want to use it in your own design process. Why do this? After all, if it’s not necessary to the product, you shouldn’t include it-right? This user-centered consideration of adding extra, not-strictly-necessary elements is a hallmark of skeumorphic design: adding features and elements to make products more recognizable. It imitates the sound of an analog camera, even though that sound isn’t necessary to take a photo on your phone. You know how your camera phone makes the shutter sound every time you take a photo?
