The Death of Personality

one dimensional buttons (you know, the thing you want the user to interact with)
a complete disregard for original design not based off every other popular product

Breaking free of the ‘modern era’
-
Thankfully, there are still a few good designers who continue to create original and inspiring work not based solely on current trends.
-
Flexibits recently launched a new contact app for macOS called Cardhop. While the UI still shifts a little too far to the ‘flat trend’ for my liking, they thankfully hired the very talented David Lanham to design the beautiful application icon.
-
This is where visual design shines. Icon designs like Cardhop’s are what allow individual applications to stand out in the dock or mobile home-screen among all the others. So how is that not UX design?
-
The current trendy thought process from designers that “visual design doesn’t involve UX design” is garbage. Neither are mutually exclusive and I think anyone who believes so is being incredibly short-sighted.
-
If you’re a designer, please stop riding trends and make your work visually beautiful. That doesn’t mean you need to sacrifice usability or function, but just put more love and confidence into your profession. Companies like Apple and Google don’t control how everyone else’s apps and sites should look, and based on their current design decisions - they shouldn’t.
