Google and the Android team have been working hard to provide all the necessary tools for developers to create beautiful looking Android apps to fit the new Android 4.0 theme. That’s the reason they created Android Design, a central location for developers to go for UI tools and tips. After its launch, the Android team began to receive numerous requests for Ice Cream Sandwich stencils. Being the amazing Android team that they are, they have made these stencils available and they can be downloaded now by heading over to the Android Design site.

Google’s goal with Ice Cream Sandwich is to present a more unified and distinguishable platform UI from here on out. They’ve been hard at work trying to figure out ways to maintain their “open” approach, while also maintaining some sort of consistency. They want developers to know that they have worked hard on creating Ice Cream Sandwich UI with “the users’ best interests in mind,” and encourage them to apply and adapt these methods when developing for Android. To help guide developers on how to create a complimenting application for Android, they have opened up a new site called “Android Design.”
