Apple won a prestigious award for iOS 26’s Liquid Glass design

Apple just received a prestigious award for its Liquid Glass design in iOS 26. Here are the details.

Liquid Glass recognized with four distinctions at the ADC Awards

iOS 26’s Liquid Glass design should get some improvements in iOS 27, but nothing major. And Apple’s designers now have another reason to stick with last year’s bold iPhone redesign.

The annual Art Director’s Club (ADC) Awards recognized iOS 26’s Liquid Glass design with four honors, including a prestigious Gold Cube in the Interactive/UX/UI category.

Apple also received a Silver Cube for Experiential Design/Digital Experiences and Bronze Cubes for Experiential Design/Consumer Experience and Innovation.

The Art Directors Club has over 100 years of experience rewarding the best artistic and artisan design talent. Here is more information about the organization on its website:

Founded by the Art Director’s Club in 1921, ADC is the oldest industry awards ceremony in the world. Entering their incredible 105th year, these awards celebrate the best in advertising, digital media, brand/communications design, book design, magazine/newspaper design, packaging and product design, motion, gaming, experiential design and architecture, photography, illustration and typography/lettering, all with an emphasis on artistry and craftsmanship.
