- Using Shadows: Using shadows gives elements a sense of depth which gives them realism. This makes it look like the user is clicking a real button instead of one on the screen which helps with user engagement.
- Using Real Life Icons: Using Icons that mimics real life objects makes it easier for users to understand what the button is for. For Example using Home icon for navigating to Homepage, using Image icon for Gallery, using magnifying glass icon for search, etc.
- Effective Colors: Using Colors that depict a specific emotion that matches the element like using green color for ON, red for OFF gives realism effect to the interface.
- Using Animations: Using Animations for when the button is pressed or using Animations while hovering over certain content.
