1990s:
This was a quirky time for design. Everything from the ad campaigns to television, to fashion seemed to be like the lovable next door neighbor. Everything was a strange mix of funny and embarrassing. Either the typography had to look wacky and hand drawn, or the colors needed to clash, or at the very least, someone should wear a milk mustache.
With so many different design styles, it’s hard to choose only a few to focus on, but these were some that really stood out and seemed to best reflect each era. We’ve seen drastic changes in the copy/image balance, use of color and photography and overall tone. For instance, currently we’re seeing very modern and minimal designs and an obsession with all things technology related. Our attention spans may be shorter in 2014, but our designs are generally sleek and to the point. What changes do you expect to see as design continues to evolve along with our ever-shifting culture.?
