Metaphors from the ‘real’ world can improve the understand of a (new) software product. cf. Nest

It should be replaced ASAP by a more meaningful UI. See the iBooks library, and how the iOS 7 went from skeumorphism to flat design.

Summary

1. Restrict yourself. It’s harder to make many typefaces, sizes, and colors match together.

2. Always use grids. Bigger margins are better.

3. Delete whenever you can.
