Trend analysis is not strong, only within the scope of their own knowledge to look for possible design trends, if there are omissions and deficiencies, please add, thank you!
PS. In fact, individuals from the heart do not like the follow trend, but sometimes there is no law, the formation of trends often through the design and market verification, if you can find a variety of trends in a potential river is a very happy thing, and can use your design to stand out. P.p.s. Don't make a novel design for novelty, at least it should be able to withstand verification.

Let's get started! (If you think the Wen long read more trouble, jump to the end to see the conclusion is good ^_^)
Web side and Desktop side:

Flatness
With the release of Microsoft Win 8, it is believed that in the following days, the graphic design style can also start to rise. ps."" Brainwashing video ads have been haunting the brain recently.
Minimalist style to become popular, while minimalist style can better meet the requirements of responsive design.

2x Refinement
Fruit in the desktop platform launched Retina screen, the industry estimates that only the fruit dare to make such a reverse day action (soft and hard all their own arrangements, no need to look like Microsoft), quite bold, for the user experience, this is a qualitative upgrade (most of the current user perception is based on vision).

Of course, the application and resolution can not be immediately in place, can only slowly develop, in the future with the depth of retina and the number of users to expand, for the pursuit of desktop applications and sites, will design a corresponding high-resolution products. Visual designers may need to do two sets of Sprite.

Banner
In order to be able to more effectively get through the same platform of multiple applications, Google, Naver, watercress recently revised and newly released itunes are the top banner design. Will it be Baidu? PS. about itunes still owes @ Cheng Purple sun a problem-_-'

Large picture Manufacturing visual effects
With the increase in bandwidth and the size of the user's screen, more and more Web sites use large images on their pages to highlight products or create visual effects, and, of course, they will have a good effect if used properly.

Responsive design
Always dislike this name, called adaptability better. Web page design and development according to user behavior and equipment environment (System platform, screen size, screen resolution, etc.) to adapt and adjust, whether users are using desktop PC or ipad, Web pages should be able to automatically switch resolution, picture size and related script functions, to adapt to different devices.

Mobile End:

Richer navigation design
With the iphone 5 height change, the Galaxy Note oversized screen ... More and more applications using a variety of navigation design, gesture navigation, left Nav flyout and so on, I believe that the follow-up in the navigation will also have a richer design appears. PS. Also owes @ Cheng Violet Sun about left Nav flyout a problem, good headache ...-_-'

Typography
The variety of mobile device screens and the increase in the number of applications, in order to be able to highlight the application of different, typography will be in the application position more and more important. such as, Tang tea, weiconote and so on. PS. This article also applies to web-side design, but due to the various reasons of Chinese fonts, the web side of the Chinese font layout has been a problem.

Native
While Google, Facebook and domestic Baidu want the web side to run on any device, native apps do better for some sites, such as Facebook (which has admitted native is superior to the web), Twitter, Their app experience is much better than the web version of the experience, Google will be its products native, search, g, mailboxes, maps and so on.

Quasi materialization
Although the fruit company has been obviously in the suppression of the excessive physical and chemical design, but believe that in 2013 will have a certain market, as long as not too much to dribbble, daily brush the list or there are many similar visual design (don't say, this is just a fantasy, The Dribbble list has a significant impact on visual design.

Android is king
For more user groups, give priority to the Android platform, and believe that mobile devices based on Android will explode in 2013.
Design requires more consideration of the features of the Android system, at least the Android designer needs to read it ...

App Clustering (platform)
Baidu to search and cloud-oriented product group, Tencent to micro-letter-oriented product group, Ali Taobao and Alipay mainly product groups, Google products, watercress Products Group ... Mobile end of the natural lack of strong correlation technology, such as URLs, interconnected companies need to create a separate application for each product, while each company's app lack of strong links, resulting in each product in singles alone, I believe that in 2013 should be some of the way out of the bureau. PS. personal optimistic to the micro-letter product group, social attributes can make the relevance of the previous app, line or Kakao Way is also a micro-faith in the future, the first will be able to directly profit from the game as the starting point, I believe that will soon see.

This will lead to the same platform app design will tend to be consistent, visual style will be unified and enhanced.

Industrial Products:

Edge to Edge (no border)
The concept of industrial design, represented by fruit companies, is believed to have a certain impact on subsequent related and similar designs.
The MX2 's world's narrowest border design, its own imac and ipad Mini, LG's borderless-style TV at CES this year.

Poor alienation
Continuous refinement of the market, effective mining user needs.
For example, 2012 mobile device screen changes, 4-inch or even 5-inch smartphone in large numbers, the change in the size of the tablet computer is very clear 9.7″, 7.9″ and 7″, I believe 2013, in this respect will also appear more differentiation.
In addition, the differentiation of similar products is also very obvious, such as Samsung built-in Android camera, can better network connection, sharing and sync photos.

Human
Technology must and must be people-oriented, design the same! As product differentiation intensifies, it is more necessary for the people who experience these products to design accordingly.
Example: The IPad Mini's edge-proof design, called finger rejection or palm rejection. When Apple adopts edge to edge design (design caused by design problems, this has the opportunity to talk about), touch screen equipment will inevitably produce a touch of the phenomenon, the edge of the design to avoid this problem.

Figure 5, Apple's patent name is "selective rejection of touch contacts in a edge region the touch surface"

Soft and hard integration
Now the hardware manufacturers tend to improve the intelligence of their products, this software has the corresponding requirements, and software manufacturers are more and more involved in the process of hardware customization production. In the meantime, we can see that Android is a great way to integrate with the hardware, which requires a deeper level of product design,
TV + Android = Google TV
Fridge + Android = Smart Fridge
