Day 6 of Ten days articles of Ramadan series and we’re back and today’s article is about some of my favourite graphic design trends for 2024 , let’s jump straight to them !
Doodles
The hand-drawn aesthetic is gaining traction in graphic design. This trend utilizes simple, illustrative hand-drawn elements to create a more human-centric feel, giving the design more friendly vibes. Brands are increasingly adopting this approach to project a sense of warmth and approachability.
Doodles are used either as a touch in imagery, or as background element, and highlight assets.
Stickers
Stickers have a cheerfulness and informality that can breathe life into static designs. This trend is used both to give an involving, friendly and cheerful look to your designs. Mostly retro style stickers are used by variety of designers to add a life in their social media designs or portfolios and make them feel more dynamic.
Bold Minimalism
One of my favourite trends of all times, Minimalism, with its emphasis on “less is more,” prioritizes purpose over clutter. This trend often incorporates bold typography in large sizes.
This strategic use of typography allows it to stand out as the focal point, supported by good use of negative space to maintain clarity and simplicity in the design, and distribute attention effectively.
Yet, still there are more trends,
But we should highlight that great design considers both the client’s needs and current trends. While some trends become timeless , others fade quickly. The key takeaway is to prioritize the client’s goals and create honest, long-lasting designs that balance trendy elements with core design principles.
