It's rightly that a book
cannot be judged by its cover page but certainly a website can be by its
design.
Web
Designing is continuously evolving & will stay the same with amazing new
factures thrilling the users, bang on strategies & convenient options all
created for the designers to simply plug & play.
Endless scrolling, banners, bold pop-ups,
cookies, social media mixing, comments, posts & the list go on.
Let's quickly have a recap of 2016 web designing trends & what upcoming colors does the year 2017
brings in for us.
2016 was a year known for lucidity.
Modern trends were the part &
parcel along with big focus on home page being the leader of web designing
elements. The year was known for minimalism with flat designing used
increasingly throughout all the great websites as companies wanted a fresh and
sleek web design.
High definition photography was
everywhere
2017 is the year for upgrading. The year has kicked out and added on to some of these
trends.
With so many picky options, it could
be at times difficult to make the right pick for your page as the' best selection'. Not to be fear at all!
We have collected five website design trends of 2017 that would
surely work out as a fire way to speed up the website moves of our lovely
readers & designers. Here they are for your bets:
1.
Geometric Design Is the Future Design For Sure
While the year 2016 was dominated by
flat
designing, geometric designing is being
the leader in 2017 with its impressive entry.
Although looked cool but flat
designing somewhat makes your web a template more & limits creativity
somewhat. Thanks to the geometric design, shape, symbols & patterns, 2017
websites are far more bubbly & shady with hexagons, rhombus-shape and
square patterns.
The beauty of this design is that
the use of these shapes is harder to duplicate, therefore, every combination gives
out a unique look. Nobody more would be happier with this trend than the
digital agencies.
The employ of geometric features
across their home pages makes the artistic branding of this digital segment
more idiosyncratic.
Start integrating these shapes into your
website gradually and discovers a new horizon of creativity. Be the first move
with an unusual pattern ideal for your brand.
2.
Don't Forget To Be Animated!
If high definition photos are
the benchmark then surely, the next level includes integrating gifs, video
effects and animation moves to your website.
The style not only help you feel giggle during
the tiring workday, but they also enhance your layout look & feel too! These
amazing tidbits can make great combination with your on hand page content.
If your brand is somewhat reluctant
to pursue an animate approach then, slight soft animations would work best for
you. In this method, websites undergo seamless change to the next idea while
scrolling.
2016 was born gifted with new
creative features. So, users now won't be in anyway compromise on choppy
transitions or default effects.
It's the job of an informed designer
to discuss these animation decisions during the early move of his design drive.
3.
Simple Navigation Is Idea for Users & Businesses
Simple navigation once again
has rocketed the year 2017. Being one of the most noteworthy design trends to go
after in 2017, simple navigation coupled up with a fast web loading time is equals to happy user and a
happy you.
As per stats reported by SmartInsights, users spend about 71% of their point on smart phones, indicating
that people want information at the speed of light.
Your role here is to cut short the journey
of information search for your users. The fewer pages your site has, the lesser
loading time it will enjoy. With a 3D
touch, you can now make your navigation
most exciting for your visitors. Your users would stay longer & longer on
your page & what else do you want that a happy user? So, let's share the
happiness.
4.
Time to Blend Old School and New School Together
A best website is ideally the one
that has something hand drawn. Coming across any silly stick figure or doodle
on a website reminds the users of the bygone days where everything used to be
non-digital & handmade & creates fun feel Making hand drawn icons, logos,
symbols, pictorial effects as the limelight of your web page certainly makes
your stand out & portrays the kind thought that yes, you are out of the
box! A better handmade draw can even
style up the personality of your site, creating user bond with your brand as it
gives a raw feel This trend could be a breakthrough for those
who are God gifted with an artistic mind. Just pick up your pen & pare
& start creating a manual logo of your own.
Chipotle and Starbucks are the top
brands that are successfully known for first hand made drawing logos.
The results were?
It augmented a beautiful touch to
the sipping experience.
5.
Typefaces not to be ignored
We commonly come across standard
writing types like: Arial, Times New
Roman and Helvetica, getting an advanced certificate for being new and improved
fonts.
Typefaces are now very weighty of
the brand with which they are being used and website on which they live.
They modify colors on the basis of a
user's scroll, have animations and are incorporated with page effects.
