Joi dives deep into Google's Material Design 3 Expressive update and the data that's reshaping how we think about UI design. With 87% of people aged 18-24 favoring expressive communications in design, Google just validated what we've been feeling - boring UI doesn't capture attention anymore.

From gradient-heavy interfaces to micro-animations that feel like "sugary candy treats," Joi breaks down the Material 3 shape library, button radii evolution, and why purple is becoming the unifying brand color. Plus: The genius circle cursor hover effect that inverts text, floating action button animations, and how Material 3 is already built into Figma for immediate use.

This isn't just a design system update - it's Google backing what designers have known: emotional and expressive storytelling in UX is most effective, and the statistics finally prove it.
