Week 3: Trends in Graphic Design

Trends are important to know when it comes to graphic design, especially in this time period where technology are so versatile that it's almost impossible to outrun it. And as graphic designers, we need to keep up with the trend so we don't fall behind. 

There are several major trends right now, flat design and paper experimentation.

For flat design, it's most noticeable in apple's new iOS software.

Paper is one of the most important tools for graphic designers and I feel like we have been experimenting with paper textures and it's versatility. I remember seeing an post where the paper itself makes noises when temper with such as fire and thunder.
