A standard for design nowadays is found none other than in your pocket.
Pictured below are the three major operating systems among the mobile market. Apple's iOS7, Windows, and Android.
Below is a comparison between iOS6 (right) & iOS7 (left)
As you can see there is a major difference between the various versions. The design for Apple's operating system has been pretty stagnant ever since the 2007 birth of the iPhone and since then, they've released updates, but not as drastic as iOS7 which sees a complete design overhaul.
Before iOS7, the design was very plain and two-dimensional with the features echoing that same monochromatic tone. iOS7 introduces a brightly lit hues that give it a bubbly look without coming off as cheesy or over-the-top. The new iteration of iOS doesn't invent anything new (most of the features introduced have already been available for Android users), but it does illuminate Apple's darkened composition and will be used for years to come along with nothing but improvements.
