Google Tests a More Modern New Design for YouTube

TheVerge: Google appears to be testing a new design for YouTube. Influenced by the simple Material Design visual look for Android, the updated YouTube looks a lot flatter and cleaner. Everything from uploading to signing in has been transformed into a focus on iconography and visual elements. Google doesn’t appear to be overhauling its actual video player, and content is largely laid out the same as the existing site. Hints of color and a fresher look certainly give YouTube a more modern look.
