If you are making a website in 2019, you have a lot of catching up to do. Web design trends have surpassed typical web designs with traditional scrolling and minimal user interactivity. Now, websites include continuous, nontraditional scrolling styles and more user interactivity. Designs have become louder and clearer. Text is featured largely and boldly in most logos now, abandoning the minimalism which dominated previous web design trends. They've also adapted to new platforms, with more than half of all websites adapting to mobile. Developers started building the web with everyone in mind, improving websites' accessibility features. And that's not even the start of how much will change in web design during 2019. Keep reading below to learn about some key web design trends, and how you can implement them!
It used to be that when you scrolled down a webpage, the content would do just that. It would scroll to the top of your screen and eventually disappear. However new web design trends are changing that. When people scroll, content can now be moved to the side. People can appear to change the scale of different content as they scroll. By using some tricks on how web content is displayed, it can appear to shrink or grow depending on how people scroll. This opens new avenues designers can experiment with in future website designs. It can improve user interactivity, and therefore user engagement!
Scrolling isn't the only part of a website's design that's changing to improve interactivity. Now, entirely interactive websites being developed on homepages which engage users deeper than before. Previously, designers wouldn't think about spending massive amounts of dollars on developing such kinds of user interactivity. It used to take too much time and money to be profitable. Thanks to improvements in automated web design though, such engagement is more than feasible; it's profitable.
Of course, web design is about details. One of the biggest shifts in web design is comparably smaller in the number of changes the industry is facing in 2019. Instead of this change being functional or interactive, it's aesthetic. More websites are adopting a bold, loud design to attract people. Company logos and text is becoming less minimalist and is instead displayed largely eye-catching typeface. Designers are done hiding in the details - they're not afraid to get in people's faces this year.
The footer used to be one of the most pointless parts of any website. It was where people stuck links to pages that wouldn't be found on a navigation bar, or it was where people could find contact details. However, it's finding new use in 2019. Now, designers are filing the footer with extensive details about the company, industry, and products being provided. Footers still contain links to web pages that get less traffic, but now they being used for other content as well.
One of the most important things in web design is making it your own. That's only more true in 2019. An influx of easy-to-use web design programs like WordPress or Squarespace resulted in a deluge of similar websites. People are simply picking similar templates. That means when a website stands out, it's that much effective at catching people's attention. The best way to stand out is with custom graphics as well as an overall custom design. Don't be afraid to pay a little extra to give your website a personal touch. It's an investment bound to pay off this year.
While web design trends used to be about presenting information cleanly and efficiently, the industry is changing. Now designers are focusing on giving users experiences with their websites. They want people to feel like a website isn't just a URL, but rather a destination. This comes with changes that emphasise creativity over many other things. Content is still being presented neatly and efficiently. Yet, consuming it is also becoming a fun an enjoyable way for someone to spend their time. Companies are striving to be about more than just business. They want to be fun - and to be fun in 2019 you need a website.
