2016 Design Trends

Posted · Add Comment

Looking through all the predictions for design trends for the coming year, here’s what we see as the major factors:

FULL SCREEN VIDEO.
Full screen video replacing slideshows and banner images. It makes you stand out better and connect with your users.

MINIMALISM.
Fewer and larger elements with a focus on strong images and typography.

BOLD GRADIENTS.
Although flat colors for backgrounds will continue, we’ll see more and more bold gradients used in design.

MEGAMENUS.
Especially for eCommerce, but for any site, the Megamenu is replacing traditional dropdowns for menus.

SUPER SATURATED COLORS.
Bright, bold and highly saturated colors will become more common in 2016 as brands use them to stand out and make a lasting impression.

The more modern your site design is, the longer it will take before it looks outdated and needs replacing. Email us at hello@21thirteen.com or call us at 646 808 0249 to learn more or for help in branding your business effectively.
