LSW Posted November 9, 2018 Report Share Posted November 9, 2018 Why Do All Websites Look the Same? https://medium.com/s/story/on-the-visual-weariness-of-the-web-8af1c969ce73 Quote Today’s internet is bland. Everything looks the same: generic fonts, no layouts to speak of, interchangeable pages, and an absence of expressive visual language. Even micro-typography is a mess. Web design today seems to be driven by technical and ideological constraints rather than creativity and ideas. Every page consists of containers in containers in containers; sometimes text, sometimes images. Nothing is truly designed, it’s simply assumed. Ironically, today’s web technologies have enormous design capabilities. We have the capability to implement almost every conceivable idea and layout. We can create radical, surprising, and evocative websites. We can combine experimental typography with generative images and interactive experiences. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
