Design Trends of 2017

It’s a new year and with that can bring that familiar feeling that it’s time for mixing things up a bit. But what to try first? What is trending? Where do we go to get some inspiration?

Well, it just so happens that I have come across this little article about just those things.

Some of my favorites to experiment more with will be:

  • Gradients – I have to admit, I already love this one and think that designers went too far over to the minimalistic side of things.
  • More Parallax – If done properly, this can be a very effective tool for crafting interest and drawing the viewer in.
  • New Navigation patterns – This is something that I’m always striving for in my work to make the sites that I create a little more surprising yet still intuitive. It’s a difficult line to balance the two on but very well worth the effort.

What are your design resolutions going to include for this year? How do you foresee these trends changing the landscape for web design? Leave a comment below.
