# Modern Web Design Trends 2024
The web design landscape continues to evolve. Here are the key trends shaping digital experiences in 2024.
## Neu-Brutalism
Bold, raw, and unapologetically digital:
- **Thick borders**: Heavy, black outlines
- **High contrast**: Bold color combinations
- **Geometric shapes**: Sharp, angular elements
- **Typography**: Bold, sans-serif fonts
```css
.neu-brutal-card {
border: 4px solid #000;
box-shadow: 8px 8px 0px #ff0000;
background: #ffff00;
transform: rotate(-2deg);
}
```
## Accessibility-First Design
Design inclusively from the start:
1. **Color Contrast**: Maintain WCAG AA standards
2. **Keyboard Navigation**: Ensure full keyboard accessibility
3. **Screen Reader Support**: Semantic HTML and ARIA labels
4. **Focus Management**: Clear focus indicators
## Micro-Interactions
Small animations that enhance user experience:
- **Hover effects**: Subtle state changes
- **Loading animations**: Engaging feedback
- **Form validation**: Real-time feedback
- **Button interactions**: Satisfying click effects
## Performance-Focused Design
Design with performance in mind:
- **Optimized images**: WebP, AVIF formats
- **Minimal animations**: Respect prefers-reduced-motion
- **Efficient layouts**: CSS Grid and Flexbox
- **Progressive enhancement**: Core functionality first
These trends focus on creating more accessible, performant, and engaging web experiences.
