Flat design is great but it can’t turn a crappy product into a good one

I say a silent prayer of thanks every time I see how popular flat design has become in modern interface. As great as this minimalist design language is, however, many people seem to think that it has far more power than it really does. While aesthetically pleasing and simple, flat design isn’t enough to take a crappy product and make it good, as too many people seem to think.
