Get your website to stand out from the crowd.
Once an app or website doesn’t deliver a quality experience, you become frustrated and move on elsewhere. According to online sources “88% of online consumers are less likely to return to a site after a bad experience.”
If you look at Snapchat they attempted to revitalize the familiar and fun experience that made it so popular with millennials by giving more real estate to it’s media partnerships and custom content. Users found the redesign to be clunky, complex and oversaturated, thus they became vocal. This has led the Snapchat to roll back their redesign, leaving them back to where they started from a design standpoint and having ruffled their users’ feathers.
A simple design that makes it easy to navigate, explore and consume content is the golden triad of app design you should strive for in order to deliver a satisfactory user experience. In a landscape of expansive options, you don’t want to give your customers a reason to hesitate to return. Give them a reason to consciously choose to click on your app icon.
What latest trends to consider in designing website excellence.
Brighter colours
There’s no such thing as a web safe colour no more. These days our devices and monitors are better equipped to handle richer, more vibrant colours, giving website designers more choice and freedom to explore use of colour.
Bright and bold colours can instantly attract attention and provide another way for brands to set themselves apart from the boring competition.
Big and bold typography
Similarly, typography has come a long way. Device resolutions are getting sharper meaning legibility is getting easier, giving rise to designers experimenting with custom fonts.
We’re also seeing oversized typefaces, which can improve user experience (UX).
Injecting a little bit of personality into your typography will add to an impactful website design.
Gradients and shadows
Goodbye flat design, shadows and dynamic gradients are making a comeback. We’re noticing gradient filters being applied to photos to create a more visual impact, and gradient backgrounds are proving to be a great alternative where images are hard to source.
Our web designers are also exploring shadow effects. When combined with colourful gradients they can create more depth and enhance the UX of your website.
Animation
With so many cool creation tools out there for designers, we’re seeing lots of small animations popping up as a new way of engaging users and creating a more dynamic site.
Animation helps with brand storytelling, conveying ideas and informing audiences in a snapshot. It’s great when used for entertaining the user while a page is loading, or as an interesting hover from a regular static link.
Particle background effects
Continuing on the animation path particle backgrounds are great at attracting instant attention. It’s all about creating subtle movement within a backdrop or image to create dynamic backgrounds and eye-catching visual effects.
The beauty of incorporating this into your website design over video backgrounds is the quicker loading times.
Asymmetric layout
The move from traditional grid based layouts to a more unconventional style was a trend that surfaced in 2017 and the appeal remains strong.
The use of asymmetrical layouts allows for a more unique experience and web designers are embracing the fresh change.
Illustrations
Custom illustrations can really bring out a brand’s personality and make your business more approachable. It’s a great way to visually engage your audience and make your brand stand out.
Keep evolving
We recommend refreshing your website design every 3 to 5 years to ensure the best and most modern, up-to-date user experience and give your business that competitive edge.
