You’re a designer looking around for inspirations and trends? Then you have come to the right place. Here I have compiled 15+ trends in the Web Design world. Have a look 👀

1. Minimal and Comfort

Less is More: Minimalism trend continues with even more blank spaces. Especially white spaces for a clean, multipurpose versatile design. Comfort is achieved through slow 🐢 but detailed Animations. Short Focused bold content on the screen. This makes sure the visitor gets your message at first sight. As you already know — “The First Impression lasts longer”.

3. Custom Illustrations and Videos

An image conveys a message worth a thousand words. Along with it they save space and arose user interest. Visuals are processed 60,000x faster than text! People remember 10% of what they hear, 20% of what they read, 80% of what they see & do! To convince you, Engagement per follower is 58 times higher on Instagram than on Facebook.

According to a study dwell time on site increase by 100 percent on pages with at least one image or videos on them. More impressively, shoppers are 85 percent more likely to purchase a product after watching its demo. If you want an example, check Invision’s youtube channel.
