Material Design and color selection

I decided to take a break from my internship and instead read up on web design. Google has a pretty exhaustive article on their own design philosophy, dubbed material design. These guidelines are extremely specific (they even specify to have no space in between en-dashes when specifying a range of times). The entire design philosophy centers around imitating tangible objects (mostly paper) in your websites, to have an intuitive and elegant aesthetic. Beyond that, the design rules are pretty typical- attractive colors, strategic placement of elements, and intuitive animations.
