We all know December is always great, a month of happiness and some new additions, there were many exciting things that 2014 has brought to us, including some interesting additions to the web development industry (for Dubai and global market).
Honestly, many of 2013 trends will stay in 2014, but there are some modifications watching for, after all they are trends they have to take off, so here is a light discussion on the top 2014 trends.
Interesting Typography:
Typography, an important part of web visuals, it is nice to see that more designers are experimenting with different types of text styles and coming up with some unique ideas too. The year 2014 will bring more personality in fonts as text will be used to describe the brand's individual personality. So, “Fonts with personality” is the new 2014 trend better described as a font style that can stand on their own. Now designers are putting more efforts in designing their unique Font style that have little personality rather than simply adding San-serif or Helvetica.
Many leading websites have developed their own unique font that can help them in maintaining their uniqueness throughout the website, although they could have used an old font, but they opt for a better and unique approach.
Flat Design:
How can we forget the new iOS7 release in which Apple come up with a new design aesthetic better known as “Flat Design”. However, it may seem good to see dropping drop shadows in some cases, but when we talk about Apple, it took it to another level by dropping pretty much a good design element can go. Apple is always a trendsetter and surely the whole world will follow it and obviously they will follow the ‘Flat design’ trend may be till the end of 2014 and the start of the new year.
Covering of ‘Intro’ areas:
Large hero areas or the ‘intro areas’ will be covered with an image with a little amount of text, at the top of the website (usually on the home page of a website). This is one trend that we are seeing going to stay even in 2014, where sliders were used before. It can be a blurred image with a more centric text to elaborate the website theme, or some more creatively designed sliders will take the place.
Mobile Technology:
Mobile technology is going farther than any imagination and in 2014, the ultimate focus will be on mobile technology. With the easy and fast adaptation of responsive design, we can see the website that can dig deeper into our mobile lifestyle. Designers are working on enhancing the design that can fit compact-sized devices, meanwhile developers are working on creating web-based solutions that can serve the increasing number of users accessing a website through different mobile devices.
Wondering still, what things new websites can bring to the user in 2014? Well, the latest 2014 trends for web development UAE would be developing and designing a website that can bring flexibility of use and can integrate well with social media and other communication channels.
