an important milestone. It’s the dawn of a new decade, and graphic design is
poised to reach new heights as designers begin to define the era. There’s a
feeling in the air that anything can happen — that we are about to witness the
next evolution of graphic design as we know it.
Although it might take a few more years for the 20s to hit their stride,
designers are already showing us glimmers of what is to come. Let’s take a look
at the reigning graphic design trends that are already starting to
characterize this new decade. пустоCyberpunk color schemes create surreal experiences for viewers
that they are unable to experience in real life. In graphic design, futuristic
themes are often expressed with color — especially bright and oversaturated
hues that we don’t typically see in nature. Their brightness also makes designs
feel friendly and inviting, despite the fact that they are shamelessly calling
attention to themselves. пустоStreet art styles is sleek, abstract, and difficult to
pull off without computer assistance, which is probably why it is popular in
tech and industrial branding. As a fundamental element of graphic design, lines
express the form and nature of an object. Geometric lines illustrate objects
that are man-made and technological, whereas curvy lines represent more natural
and organic forms. In 2020, we are seeing designers merge these line styles to
achieve impossible shapes. These designs are based on stable geometry, but they
still manage to feel transient and ethereal. They look metallic but drift like
smoke. пустоHand lettering with big personality have a retro appeal, conjuring up
images of the 70s punk scene, the neon 80s and the grungy 90s. With its
inherent edginess (given its association with vandalism), graffiti is also a
movement of jubilance and freedom, of breaking bonds and protesting convention.
All in all, this trend is the perfect aesthetic to get us feeling like the
future is in our hands. пустоPaper cut‑out collages Typography has always been a critical element of
graphic design. In the digital age, when everything must make immediate sense
to new users, typography became very functional by necessity. But in recent
years, type has become bigger,
bolder and more experimental. Designers are proving that even a composition
that limits itself to white space and text can still be adventurous with bold
typographic forms. пустоContinuous animation sequences By means of cut fragments,
this technique easily opens up to new unexpected relationships among the
graphic elements. Designers
are mixing images that clearly do not belong in the same universe, such as
illustrations and photographs. The effect is to straddle the line between
contrast and harmony, bringing together disparate elements in a kind of
asynchronous beauty. пустоUltra thin geometry No graphic design
trends list would be complete without a vintage inspired look making some form
of comeback. Whether it’s Victorian or Medieval, Art Deco or Art Nouveau, past
art styles are merging with modern designs in one massive chronological
collage. Designers are taking advantage of the contrast between our digital
images and past aesthetics to appeal to an old-world grandeur that is so often
lost in vectorized simplicity. пустоHyper‑pastiche Though
it can be a steep investment, this technique is one of the most powerful ways
to bring a brand to life, and it has become increasingly commonplace online.
This is usually in the form of microinteractions and explanatory motion graphics. It is useful for brands who want to take their viewers on a journey,
making them feel as though they are flying through an ever-morphing world. To conclude, 2020 is about disparate elements
coming together: the past and the future, the geometric and the organic, the
real and the artificial. Maybe, these graphic design trends are just a
coincidence. Maybe, they say something about the mood we’re all in. One thing is
certain: the 20s are off to an electrifying start. Whether this momentum will
sustain itself over the coming decade depends on designers everywhere.
