Web blogs currently tend to follow some specific trends. So far as they are no longer treated as simply mediums for giving expression to ones thoughts, covering almost all areas we might think of, bloggers seek to bring up something unique that will vibrantly stand out from the other design. With millions of bloggers out there, it’s clear that we see constant formation of certain design trends. Getting bold in style approaches, blog designs tend to respond these hypes. So we can always find some conformity in layouts while browsing around them. Here we will give you several different perspectives of incredibly versatile blog design trends. This might be a useful source if you’re considering creating a new blog or currently undertaking a redesign of your own. So let’s kick off now – for a start, here is a short list of those most conspicuous design tendencies (for your navigation ease):
- Oversized Headers
- Enough White Space
- Newspaper Style
- Typography Advanced
- Themed Layout
- Grid Based Designs
- Elements Transparency
- Perspective and Depth
- Huge Images
- Info Boxes
- Centric Layouts
This technique is used to replace that flashy content that usually appears on the front page to give a one-image impression of a website. Gigantic header instead may be the perfect alternative to grab visitors’ attention taking the major part of the screen to perform like a splash page.

Therefore, we may often spot simple and clean concepts in portfolio websites that selectively use images and incorporate a lot of white space to create a minimalist feel. Plus, such designs do not overwhelm the user with too many unnecessary elements that is a way efficient for multimedia presentation.

Grungy web design look appears to rapidly gain on popularity now, but it is still having its hot opponents which blame for a certain slatternliness of this style. To shatter the myth of grunge style as being sloppy and unappealing, today we’ll have a good look at this design trend. Basically, it is typical for grunge to illustrate the textured and gritty backgrounds, irregular or crooked visual elements, torn edges, faded graphic designs. This stylish design trend gives uneven and less structured forms that are being widely adopted from urban surroundings and industrial scenery mainly to contrast that sleek and glossy web 2.0 style, which maintains very straight lines along with the overall polished and clean cut layouts. Grunge devotees, in their turn, have ventured away from this mainstream opting rather for a bit of a smeared and dirty look.
Now, we’ll dwell solely on the grungy eCommerce designs that have been adding the fuzzy, distorted design elements to give the design its spunk. They use a deliberately untidy and uncoordinated style and do that damn well to showcase exactly what their online shop is all about. Mainly, we can come upon t-shirt stores, music, sport, shoes, and apparel shops – all perfectly utilizing the grunge to give off just the right amount of personality and keep the proper intentions for their eCommerce sites nice, clear, and focused. Let’s now explore how far they can take this awesome style in their designs.
