Have you noted the changes in Logo design? Many Marketers, Designers do oversized logos with oversized headers. Sometimes, Space for logo and the header take the entire screen space which we see first instance. People who likes Old Designs argue with, this is not user friendly, visitors do not have call to action on first instance. But Modern designers argue that, due to there are no any action on first instance, visitors tend to scroll down the page. Then webmasters have more space to get desired action to be performed.

Slab typefaces are another trend that many designers use. But this is not the latest finding or trend to Marketing. History of Slab typefaces are going back to more than 200 years. Bold and all capital letters and some imposing effects are the examples of slab typefaces. Last few years, due to small headers, designers could not use this feature on their designs, but with oversized headers, they can easily implement this now. Many web designers use this to get visitors high attention.
Typography is another modern trend which I noted. It will be continue for many years. Different fonts, styles, colors, sizes are using in right places on web page to get visitors attention other than always using images. Some experts argue that this will distract to visitors. However, It is up to designers to use this in more effective manner.
Hand drawn design is another latest trend, however this is not very much seen and popular among many web designers due to majority of designers are not excellent in drawing. If you able to draw, try few designs, you can create unique designs and your clients love to see different look. It is good for individual websites such as professional websites who promote a person or small group of peoples community, associations etc. ecommerce websites may not attractive with hand drawn web design.
