Website design seems to be changing on a daily basis. One day something that everyone used was “in” and the next day it is “out.” As an award winning website design company, we make sure to follow the trends and make sure our designs look great. Here are a few design trends that are no longer trends that we are happy to see go.

1. Text Heavy Websites– Gone are the days of text heavy website with a few pictures to enhance the web page. Today you will see the majority of website with larger, beautiful pictures with shorter, concise content that is good to look at and easy to read.

2. Shadows & Dimensions– Flat design is in, and shadows are out. This trend is mostly because of the influence of Apple & Android. High resolutions screens and retina displays are widely popular and flat designs look outstanding on them. This gives a more clean, modern and simplified design.

3. Mobile Websites– While we are not sure we completely agree that this trend is out, but it definitely isn’t as popular as it once was. While many industries can benefit from mobile website, responsive websites are more popular.
