Trends keep the world on its toes. Whether it is something quirky, something that gets everyone talking, or even something that is out of the way, no one ignores a trend.
Reason?
To beat the competition, it is essential to be on top of your game and partake in the trends that are doing the rounds in the digital space.
Here are 4 website design trends that you need to pay attention to this year!
HORIZONTAL SCROLLING MAKES FOR A GREAT WEBSITE DESIGN TREND!
We have always been accustomed to vertical scrolling. Why change now?
Well, psychology says that the eyes move from the left to the right while reading and thus websites are now experimenting with this landscape mode of displaying information.
Will it work?
Start with having a photo gallery in the horizontal bar. This way viewers won’t be obligated to scroll horizontally but can if they wish to check out some artsy stuff.
An important thing to bear in mind is that while trends are a great thing, some viewers prefer the traditional and mainstream approach.
Leave the choice up to your viewers!
VARIOUS FORMATS OF MULTIMEDIA MAKE FOR A REFRESHING WEBSITE DESIGN. SO GO AHEAD AND TRY THEM ALL!
Here’s what you could have your site brimming with:
- Video snippets that have your core team speaking about the business ideals.
- Pictures of your workspace or products that are a hit.
- Animated text is a fun way of conveying information.
- Infographics that highlight information without being too preachy.
CREATE CONTRAST WITH COLOURS!
While pop-up colors add the brightness quotient to the website, don’t go overboard. A trend of 2021 is subtle colors used with contrasting shades to create some amazing blends that don’t hit the eye.
While you are prepping the palette for your website, fill it with colors that reflect the aesthetic of the business. A serious website dedicated to finance, banking, and technology needs bold monochromes.
A fashion site could go for quirky and fun.
CURSORS CAN ADD A NEW ANGLE TO WEBSITE DESIGNS
Why settle for the plain old arrow cursor when you could have something fun?
People love playing around with new designs and the fun cursor would even have them navigating more through your site simply for the thrill of watching the icon.
Seems an exciting trend, right?
