if it's a poster design a business card a package design or a funny birthday card these two Trends
give you the designer a lot of choice we're talking about the design trends of one folk
Botanical and two Vivid minimalism now let's take a look at why these Trends are just so useful on
your graphic designs first up Vivid minimalism now if you're someone who finds a minimalist graphic
design kind of boring then Vivid minimalism might actually just be for you now Vivid minimalism is
really beginning to take off as a graphic design Trend and it combines the Simplicity
of minimalist design with bold and bright colors to create visually striking designs now it uses
a lot of geometric shapes clean lines and limited color palettes that often just include one or two
bold colors with contrast in neutral or white backgrounds well typically anyway but here are
four reasons why you probably should care about this design Trend one a it creates a strong visual
impact and helps to draw attention to key elements on your graphic designs two the simple and
uncluttered design style can be quite effective for conveying information quickly and efficiently
this makes it really useful for marketing and branding materials as you can see here this Keen
cosmetic design hits the nail right on the head really easily and effectively and number three
it's really good for digital design typically Vivid minimalism is good for digital designs
where bold and bright colors can actually help design stand out on small screens and it might
even help stop users scrolling endlessly across their phones and number four yeah it's versatile
it's pretty versatile and that's something all UI designers want so the Vivid minimalism Trend can
actually be applied to various different design applications it's really easy to use and it's
really easy to apply to designs but of course it still requires an eye for design on the designer's
part however your brief annual design message along with the target audience should align with
the need for this trend to be relevant in your project but here are some Pro tips that you can
use and take away from this video and actually make use of this trend on your designs really
effectively one start with a focal point and the key essential information from there you can then
work around it to emphasize the important info two and be consistent use consistent colors typography
and Design Elements throughout your design to create a cohesive and harmonious outcome nobody
wants to look at a design that lacks a running theme trust me and the third Pro tip is that
negative and white space are going to be your best friends when it comes to this design Trend
even gun Road have shown a great way to use Vivid minimalism on their design and this webpage style
has stuck in my head for the longest time at this point oh and by the way you can actually grab my
logo design guide on gumroad and yeah yeah okay it is a Shameless plug but that's only because
this design guide actually does Rock okay so what about the other Trend folk Botanical hmm
so this graphic design trend is characterized by the use of intricate patterns vibrant colors
and illustrations of Flora and nature in general but hey you're thinking to yourself why should I
care why should I care about this trend well here are four good reasons to consider this style on
your relevant briefs for future design projects well number one it's pretty Timeless the folk
Botanical trend has been around for centuries and has stood a test of time pretty well it comes and
it goes sure but right now it's back in a big way and number two actually conveys a strong sense of
authenticity which is pretty crucial in certain situations the folk Botanical trend is rooted
in traditional crafts and techniques which can actually add a sense of authenticity and Heritage
to a design this is especially useful when you're working on something like an organic product or
products that are more expensive to the consumer number three it evokes a connection to Nature the
use of Flora and fauna in folk Botanical designs kind of work a connection to Nature and a sense
of well-being which can be appealing to Consumers for certain products again it comes down to your
design the brief and the message that design wants to carry in relation to the brief and for
its versatile the fog Botanical Trend can be used on various different design applications such as
packaging design web design branding and marketing materials okay cool but what are actually some of
the best practices for designers when using fog Botanical design Style on the designs intricate
patterns are a big part of the style use Botanical elements such as leaves flowers and Vines to
create these patterns that can actually be used on various Design Elements such as backgrounds
borders and overlays one Hallmark of this style is that the folk Botanical uses a lot of vibrant
colors but yeah this doesn't actually need to be the case but also a muted color palette can
work too or even black and white also consider experimental topography because this is often seen
in this trend and yes I am going to say it again it depends on your brief and the message of your
project now it doesn't need to make up your entire design as you can see on this cosmetic packaging
the designer has used the Botanical style as just one small part of the overall design and in
a refined and clever way to make some luxurious package design and yes this design style uses a
lot of patterns on the actual Graphics itself and to save time you can actually download things from
a service such as envato elements scrolling through here we can see how a lot of these
design downloads would actually fit right into the fog Botanical design style using something
like envato elements just simply saves heaps of time when you're working on a project and your
workflows and specifically inverter elements has literally millions and millions of downloads open
