Free Skeuomorphic Photoshop Goodies for Affectionate Design

All of us have heard a lot about skeuomorphism in web design as it has become a trend commonly followed during interface development. The technique supposes exploitation of familiar images existing in real life bringing them into virtual world, which makes the interface easier for user’s understanding. Designers simply imitate elements we use every day for certain purposes and place them according to the associated functionality. Actually this similarity serves aesthetic decorative purposes helping to impart certain style to the layout. All those textures, ribbons and objects can look rather personal informal and playful, that’s why skeuomorphic designs are really winning for games, blogs, journals, art galleries etc. They look very creative, yet cozy and the user, especially the one not on short terms with complex technologies, feels extremely comfortable in such digital environment as everything seems well known and welcoming.

The relevance of the technique is always the matter of designer’s preference and website designation as skeuomorphic layouts can be completely unsuitable for particular project categories, such as online stores and ultra-modern sites, where everything is focused around pure functionality without excess decorative details distracting the user from main goal.

If you are on the verge of creating a user-friendly website oriented on average visitor, our collection of free beautiful skeuomorphic Photoshop goodies will be exactly to the point. They will help you develop the design able to stir up the needed emotions and responses in users’ hearts.
