The Next Colors begins here

Lots of 90s trends are back in style! Crop tops, chokers, even scrunchies (…seriously). And there’s one trend that’s taking the design world by storm that would feel right at home in 1995—and that’s gradients. Gradients are a gradual blending from one color to another color (or, if you’re in a colorful mood, from one color to another color to another color—gradients aren’t limited to two shades).

Flat design has been a standard design choice for a while now, and there’s good reason for that. It’s streamlined, it’s modern and perhaps most importantly, it delivers information fast—all while looking clean and fresh. For all the good flat design can do for brands, it’s easy to look at a flat image and think that creating one yourself is simple.
