In a cluttered media environment, there is an ongoing fascination with the power of colour. Strong brand colours are always a great asset, on-screen and off-screen. Vibrant hues catch attention and raise engagement. The use of vivid shades can allow key brand messages to stand out from the rest.

With a couple of swipes, a like and a share, what’s in today is gone tomorrow. Graphic design trends are changing rapidly, based on a fast-spreading global pop culture that determines what’s hot, and what’s not, almost instantly.

In such a connected world, keeping pace with the right look and feel is essential. While a picture was once worth a thousand words, it’s now worth much more. If you don’t want your audience to bounce, basic is not enough.

By creating unique printed and digital assets that engage consumers and drive social media posts (and a whole lot of likes and shares), brands can leverage the “Instagram effect” to attract customers. Start with these trends, and keep reinventing!
