2017 Design Trends

07.05



Semi Flat Design

In the past few years flat design ruled the web design market but now, influenced by Material Design, it is becoming more dimensional. This transition begins with some light shadows, making it a semi flat design. The evolution of flat design from a minimalist style suits the new developing technologies. Flat design is still in, but it has undergone some improvements.



The smooth shading adds a depth and complexity without destroying the flat design feeling. This is a new feature added to the flat trend and will continue to evolve in 2017.



Cinemagraphs

Cinemagraphs aren't the regular gifs we see all around the web. Cinemagraphs are still images with minor elements moving in them. This technique makes a simple photo more realistic by bringing it to life.



More 3D

3D is definitely heading  our way and we are going to see its influence in all design fields. With the VR/AR revolution rapidly building momentum, this domain is evolving pretty fast.




Geometric Shapes, Patterns, Lines and Circles

This trend started in 2016 and will definitely continue in 2017. You can personalize a website simply by adding some modern shapes, either flat or with a soft shadow.



Color Transitions

Color transitions are one of the biggest trends right now.  Beginning in 2016 and growing quickly  after, big names like Instagram decided to change their logos and images from a flat color to a multi-colored transitions. From logos to buttons or picture overlays, this trend is everywhere.



Creative Use of Neutral Space and Grid

In previous years  web design had been  adapted to organized columns and grids, but in 2016  we saw a considerable shift towards irregular layers and ultra-modern design.



Hidden Navigation

The hamburger menu creates many pro and con arguments over how difficult it is for tusers to find the menu, but one thing is for sure - this trend is here to stay and people will eventually get used to them.



Logo Design Minimalist
As all the big brands switch to a simpler, minimal design, this trend is here to stay.


Hand drawn
This is a trend that has been  in the spotlight for a few years now and it is perfectly fitting for a “hipster” business. This style is used for the café-restaurant industry, barbers or art and crafts.



Cropping
This trend is as minimal as it gets, showing just enough to know what a logo is all about and nothing more.



Geometric
This trend is certainly old-school, but it’s just one of those styles that will never die.



Line art
This trend is popular among the new and modern business.



 Pattern
Patterns are a new trend and this repetition is a unique way to make a business stand out. This original trend can be also used in the logo's presentation.



Vintage
Vintage style is still in. Even if this trend has been present for some time now, it still has something left to say.




Illustrations in logos
Illustrations are a good way to give a unique and personal touch to a business logo. They are becoming increasingly popular this year.
