Website design is constantly evolving to reflect the ever changing and growing standards, user expectations, and business landscape. The global coronavirus pandemic has underlined the importance of building a solid online presence. As 2021 gets underway, a number of trends are shaping up to dominate desktop and mobile website design services. ROI Mantra endeavours to keep pace with website design trends and best practices so as to deliver websites that drive your business objectives and place you firmly above the competition. Let’s take a look at some of the web design trends that are going to be driving the industry in 2021.
1. Video Integration
While it goes without saying that videos are ubiquitous in web design, they have since stopped being purely informational and become a design element in itself. With the help of new technologies, videos can now be integrated into websites in a range of new and exciting ways. One notable tool for doing this is VideoBox, which allows for the addition of layers and determining whether you want your video to play automatically, on a loop, or on slo mo. The videos can also be cropped using Video Mask into fascinating designs and shapes that can be added as floating elements to breathe life into the website.
2. Asymmetric Layouts
Traditional website design has always thrived on symmetry in the layout of the design as a way to guarantee that the website will make sense. Symmetry implies stability and order, but in recent times, asymmetric layouts are coming to the fore owing to a whole new set of advantages such as the attainment of significantly dynamic and daring results coupled with unfettered freedom of design. It is now widely accepted that an asymmetric layout does not necessarily entail the absence of visual balance.
3. Animation
Animation has been part of web design for a little while now and seems to be gaining its foothold and presenting designers with limitless web design animation possibilities with every passing moment. It turns otherwise mundane scrolling into something so much more with elements such as animated lines or text to backgrounds. There is no denying that when done right, animation can strike quite an impression on visitors whether it is on the aesthetic front or driving users to take certain desirable actions.
4. Minimalist or Maximalist Extremes
The year 2021 is going to see these two extremes sharing the spotlight as opposed to existing in exclusivity. The minimalist approach dwells on the principle of ‘less is more’ by focusing on simplicity and getting rid of excess design elements. The maximalist approach, on the other hand, displays a youthful disregard for order and comfort in favor of unbridled creative expression. Unlike the minimalist ‘less is more’ approach, maximalist design emphasizes on ‘the more the merrier’ idea. The trend manifests in a number ways including overlapping visuals, font variation, floating elements, and bigger typography.
