As some one who dœsn't particularly care for frutiger æro , I at least hope peops do some thing (new|original) with this glass effect
Wonder what it'd lꝏk like if they still mimicked how glass worked in real life but used some thing like frosted glass for it for elements where readability's important . Can maybe see tiny bits of refraction here :
WIN10 ACRYLIC MENTIONED
...used before they frankensteined in the fluent around win11's rollout 😔
That looks closer to where things are today, with a lot of mainstream UIs that aren't quite superflat going for that frosted, acrylic sort of aesthetic. Translucent but not transparent.
Examples from Windows 11 and iOS 18:
