Google is working on a new interface for Google Chrome

It seems that Google is working on a new interface for Google Chrome, based on Material Design 2, specially optimized for tablets and convertible touch computers.

For some time, Google has been working on revamping all the user interfaces of its tools, which are currently based on Material Desings. This type of design is not going to disappear, since the Mountain View company is working on an update of this system, which will be called 'Material Design 2', as referenced in several open Google repositories. Apparently the next to be updated will be Google Chrome, one of the most used browsers.

Google Chrome, apparently, will not be based on the Material Design review, but on a new system that has been called 'Touchable Chrome'. Google wants to completely renew all its systems, up to Material Design, which will be four years old at Google I / O 2018. Rumors indicate that Google Chrome will change its design on September 2, the date on which this browser's birthday , although we should already see a forward in the Google event, next May.

Material Design, are the main lines of a design developed by Google that came together with Android Lollipop in 2014. The design of this interface is based on palettes, plants and pastel colors, as a base element in the Android interface and in many of the applications of the company and third parties. This philosophy has been imposed on other interfaces, expanding to more Google services.

It is not the first reference to Material Design 2, but after a while this reference was deleted, but this reference, within Google communities, has returned with the name of Touch Optimized.

The most relevant thing is that Google Chrome will have a new interface, simpler and specially optimized for Chrome touch devices. The experts of xda-developers They have traced the different references to Chrome touch and everything indicates that there will be a Material Design 2, with a renewed interface directly for tablets and convertible computers, and that it has nothing to do with Material Design 2.
