Skeuomorphism - concept

Skeuomorphism is a design concept that involves incorporating design elements from real-world objects into the digital environment. In other words, it is a design approach that mimics the physical attributes of objects or materials in a virtual or digital space. The term "skeuomorphism" comes from the Greek words "skeuos," meaning container or tool, and "morphe," meaning shape.

In the context of user interface (UI) and graphic design, skeuomorphism was particularly popular in the early days of digital design, especially during the era of desktop software. Skeuomorphic design elements are intended to make digital interfaces more familiar and intuitive by imitating the appearance of their real-world counterparts.
