Graphic design trends for 2021 are predicted to include clashing colors with contrasting and dissonant color schemes to attract attention. Nature-inspired prints using plants and flowers both minimally and dramatically will also be popular, working with other emerging styles like maximalism. Maximalism is an over-the-top design approach using multiple prints, large text sizes, contrasting colors and random images packed into a design to create an explosive visual effect while remaining engaging.

design trends are a reflection of what is happening in
society. Aesthetics interpret a shared sentiment or
worldview. Now that people are happy to leave 2020

will dominate 2021?
Clashing colors
If the past years were about matching colors or
maximizing one color with different shades, 2021 is about
clashing shades. Contrasting and dissonant color
schemes are becoming an effective tool when it comes to
landing pages, posters, and even infographics. Unlikely
combos seem to attract the eyes faster than carefully
matched hues.

Back to nature
Nature-inspired prints seem to be all the rage these days.
From minimalistic use of plants and flowers to over the
top forest-like designs, the past year has inspired
designers to explore what they can do with nature
elements. This year, the trend will even be stronger as it
can also be used with other emerging styles such as
maximalism and clutter. Ram Chary.
Maximalism
Forget the rules. This school of thought is all about being
over the top. This year, many will see designs that will
use multiple prints, oversized texts, contrasting colors,
and even include random images. Instead of thinking
outside the box or working with the bare minimum,

maximalism fills the box with different things. The goal
is to make explosive designs. The challenge for designers
is to make their work look engaging despite the layers of
elements. Ram Chary
