Have the 2024 web design trend predictions come true? We're over halfway through the year, so it's a good moment to assess. Wix, which tops our pick of theat the start of the year. There's also been an abundance of Y2K design and nostalgia for the early days of web design as well as an increase in the use of more handmade elements, perhaps as a push back against the artificiality we're seeing in the explosion of AI generated content online. Here are the highlights of the report.

To tap into the trend, Wix suggests that web designers can use interactive 3D elements that users can manipulate, like clickable objects that change state or appearance with each interaction, to create a more immersive experience. Surreal animations that alter the perception of the digital environment, like overlays or dynamically changing backgrounds, can also given a sense otherworldliness.

Designers can make use of this web design trend by using old-style fonts like Garamond or Caslon or a decorative font with special glyphs and vector elements. Wix also suggests using rich jewel tones and subdued neutrals, pairing pops of colors like burgundy, navy blue and emerald green with cream, taupe and antique white backgrounds. Vintage floral patterns, ornamental frames or Toile De Jouy complete the look.
