Designers from Medium in this article to predict the most noteworthy design trends in 2016 years, and veteran design blog Designmodo also have their own views. New technologies and new design trends will emerge in 2016, but overall, it will continue to evolve along the 2015 trend. Predictably, there will be more websites using the video background in 2016 years, more material design-style interface designs, and slide-style interface switching will continue to be hot.

Designmodo 11 of the design trends for 2016 forecasts, many of which are indeed medium "like-minded". Two-phase confirmation, should be able to let you see more clearly.

　　Vertical scrolling

With the flow of mobile traffic over and over again, web design began to become more and more obvious to the mobile end of the tilt, more direct vertical scrolling page became the trend.

A few years ago, the vertical scrolling page was once popular, at that time many people for this "too simple" page design method is not optimistic, but the mobile end of the flat after the trend, moving upright is the upper, vertical scrolling page design comeback, killing a piece of heaven and earth. On the mobile side, page scrolling is an intuitive interaction for the user, which makes the vertical scrolling page seem more natural and straightforward.

　　More card-style interface

Card-type interface design is Material design inspired by the development of a popular approach, it first appeared in the app design, and then began to popular in web design, and even affect a lot of graphic design works. Card-style interface is an interesting and useful pioneering work, because the existence of cards can better organize information, but also allows users to more clearly interact. Card design coincides with the idea of modular design, from the structure to the visual is so, which makes it easy to become a cross equipment interaction, stacking, moving, transmission can be logically and clearly completed.

　　Video background/Video page header

The design trend of video background has been heating up. Let Web browsing have the same user experience as watching movies, this is what designers have been looking forward to, but due to the performance of the Digital Equipment short board, in a long period of time, designers can not achieve their own ideas. But now, the mobile phone and computer processing ability has been quite good, short video background can also be smooth on the mobile phone computer playback. In addition, the popularity of intelligent television, so that the use of video has a greater space, and more possibilities.

　Small dynamic effect

As with the video background, dynamic is also the current hot trend. Video background to eat more bandwidth requirements, and small dynamic effect is a veritable eating performance, fortunately for the current digital equipment does not have too much pressure. Small action can appear in every corner of the Web page, the user's attention is consciously attracted to a specific place, let users linger, produce enough surprises, bring a pleasant experience.

Of course, the most important factor in dynamic design is the purpose of dynamic design: Why design such an action, and what is its real purpose?

　　Focus on Interaction

The most closely associated with a small action is the interaction. It is the communication bridge that allows applications and interfaces to interact with the user's real relationship. The real good interaction is the smooth and silent, it can be not obvious, it can be subtle, but must be natural, and for the user to produce utility. From the simplest reminders to the complex and beautiful pop-up boxes, from the obvious control interface to the subtle rebound micro-interaction, the interaction design defines the logical relationship between the person and the machine, connecting the interface, the dynamic, the content, the operation together. Now designers pay more attention to the unity of interactive design, but also fascinated by how to combine micro-interaction and dynamic effect fully together, I believe that in the new year, this is the focus of attention.

　More Beautiful typography

Simple and intuitive interface has been a little beautiful typography sufficient space. Large size, stylized font title and logo still occupy the mainstream of web design in Europe and the United States, there are more designers began to choose such a design. The beautiful typography design will not only be more visual, but also can leave more space for other elements to play. Font layout Design There is a problem in particular, it is worth noting that the design of typography should be both interesting and content readability, excellent design not only excellent design ideas, but also pay special attention to the collocation of fonts.

　　Illustrations and graffiti

Illustrations and graffiti tend to make Web pages interesting and inject the ingenuity into them. Many types of illustrations, diverse styles, large to the entire page background, small to the corner of the icon, can be illustrations. The most wonderful thing about illustration and graffiti is that it gives the page a character and makes it more personalized. It is this personalization, often with the user to resonate, and this is the important basis for its trend towards the popular.

　　Bold and bright colors

Retro has been popular all the time. The popularity of retro colors is clearly one of several popular elements that have been resurgent in recent years. The popularity of Material design and flattening has given the bold and bright colors of the 80 's wind a new stage. In the past 2015 years, in monochrome web design, these bright colors have been validated, the user does not conflict. In the 2016, these colours may reproduce the atmosphere of the 80.

　　More Burger icons and logos

Icons are always plays, dazzle icons, do web design, UI design, graphic design also need a variety of icons to do support. More and more Uikit began to join the icon, and the icon collection began to integrate the major icon design projects, packaging and downloading, or even made into a stand-alone icon tool. Thanks to SVG's formatting advantages, many oversized icons can also be applied to Web pages and the UI in smaller volumes.

　　The boundary between reality and imagination is gradually blurred

Must the website be designed to be realistic, or is it all animated? In web design, the boundary between reality and imagination becomes more and more blurred, and the actual material and imagined elements are blended in a single interface and presented in a more tension-rich way. In fact, this reality and the virtual content of the integration of the presentation, will give the Web page more personalized browsing experience, for designers, this approach to design a larger space.

Slide-style web design

The

Web site's carousel is nothing new, but if you extend it to the entire screen, it will form a slide-like page. Each slide that occupies the entire screen can carry different content, not the same design, can be made into a scrolling page, you can add a delay to the dynamic effect. Users can slide the slide around, which is an interactive experience that approaches physical reality. Like many design trends, such web design is simpler and more intuitive.
