Zontik iOS app- minimalistic weather report

This iOS app design is a part of my graduations project at China Academy of Art. Below is a short video that I put together to explain the main functions. View landing pageInspired by the minimal, slick design of Dieter Rams, my app is designed to tell you whether or not you will need an umbrella today.There are many apps which will tell you the precise temperature with up to the minute accuracy. However, for most of us the only thing we need to know is whether to take an umbrella today.For more relevant weather reports, swipe your finger across the upper and lower sections of your screen, revealing the temperature and wind speed for today.

From the very beginning I was into skeuomorphic design. I love the way old Apps were made, they look almost tangible and real.
