SCROLLING EFFECTS

The parallax effect is in the latest web design trend. It adds interactivity between your audience and your website. It is a scrolling effect that moves along as you scroll down or up a website, giving it a 3D illusion effect.

MINIMALISTIC

Flat designs are generally found in a minimalistic website. Therefore, the interfaces will be greatly affected because the elements found on the interfaces such as icons and buttons used should have no depth at all. Hence, texts and colors are used to communicate with users. With that being said, only include elements and content that are necessary to achieve that page’s goals. Adding more white spaces will give your website a clean look. This allows your audience to get your message at first glance.

Furthermore, Material design by Google is a great source for minimalistic web design.

LAYOUT (BROKEN GRID AND LAYOUTS)

Last but not least, the layout structure of the overall web design. In structured and grid layouts, the way we place our content on a website may be restricted. With broken grid layouts, there is more freedom in the way we arrange the contents. However, this does not mean that the grid layout will be neglected entirely. Images and text elements can drift into and across the gutters that usually serve as an endpoint.
