today we're going to be looking at five
graphic design trends for 2018 and if
they're important and not to follow what
is up people welcome back to satori
graphics the home of graphic design
content right here on YouTube so today I
have five graphic design trends for 2018
I'm going to look at if they're
important and not to follow at the very
end of this video so let's take a brief
look at these five graphic design trends
for 2018 so double exposure has been an
effect that's been around for quite a
few years already but we're definitely
seeing a rise in the use of the double
exposure effect more and more going into
2018 designers are not only
experimenting with its effect for fun
and for fun artwork but it's being used
in advertising and other areas of design
as well so you can expect to see double
exposure making more and more of an
impact in graphic design into the new
year the double exposure effect is
typically made of Photoshop and I myself
have even made a tutorial on the double
exposure effect back in the Channel's
history and yeah
satori graphics does make Photoshop
tutorials from time to time once in a
blue moon springs to mind
the next graphy design trend that you
can expect to see a lot more of in 2018
is responsive logo design responsive
design has been around for about a
decade already and since then it's
become more and more a standard within
the industry the rapid rise of mobile
design and mobile interfaces has caused
some usability issues with standard
websites designers developers experiment
with different ways to adapt to this
change and thus they laid the groundwork
for what has become known as responsive
design so with that being said you might
have seen that Lakers have responded to
this as well and any typical logo design
now has two or multiple versions of
itself going down in simplicity to adapt
to responsive design and this is only
going to become a bigger bigger thing
going into 2018 and onwards so I'm sure
you guys have all heard of well you know
about the bright and colorful hues of
the 80s and the 90s
well it's gaining popularity once again
as we move away from ultra ultra flat
design you can expect to see more
geometric patterns inspired by the era
of the 80s and the 90s I myself have
seen this all over Instagram and you can
expect to see more of in 2018 it's funny
to see how like fashion trends go around
in circles and they repeat themselves
over and over again what design trends
are no different so when it comes to
typography in 2018 you can expect that
everything bigger and bolder is better
so designers are going to be opting for
artistic effects and bold type for the
headlines of their designs how better
conspired sans-serif fonts are going to
be the main course when it comes to
typography and they seem to remain
fashionable throughout time so you can
expect to see a lot more typefaces of
this nature in 2018 and I'm personally
fine with this because I really do love
San serif bold fonts so just how that's
ago I think they're really stylish in
contemporary and they work across the
board however there's a time and a place
for everything and you need to keep that
in mind especially when typography is
concerned
so the last trend for 2018 when it comes
to graphic design is custom graphics the
demand for custom art and custom
graphics in design is growing and
growing growing custom imagery has
always played a role when it comes to
print media but that's also growing as
well however when it comes to digital
media custom graphics has kind of taken
a backseat stock imagery was the gate to
for many many designers now advertisers
and brands are elected for custom
graphics to stand out and designers are
following suit now ready to love this
because I like to be individual and I
like designers to do their own thing
instead of just pulling stock imagery
from a website it can only breed more
creativity so there were five trends in
graphic designer you can expect in 2018
I feel that's always helpful to be aware
and to grasp the trends that are going
on in the design world as a graphic
designer within the community of
designers it helps to understand what
the trends are as it allows us to
communicate integrate together as one
big family so for example posting
creative artwork on Instagram or social
media that follows these trends it gets
everybody talking and communicating and
designing things together as a family
this can also boost communication
between designers and clients
interacting between these trends as well
also it does work for specific areas of
graphic design in terms of work projects
if it's using a skill for mana if you're
designing content that's going to be
consumed by the viewer and gone away in
a matter of months using graphic design
trends can be a good idea however I have
a major gripe when using graphic design
trend for something like brand or logo
design that is apart from responsive
logo design which is a bit different I'm
talking about typographic and style
trends when you're designing a brand or
logo you wanted to stand the test of
time you don't want it to be washed out
when a trend that comes and goes because
a trend typically lasts like a year or
two of the Mist so when you're designing
a brand or logo forget the trends and
concentrate on the brief and the brand
itself so what do you think about
graphic line trends and grapples and
trends of 2018 lemon in the comment
