ITT we predict what extremes the flat design fad will take in the future.
>>
>>56741684
Link to download those new sexy icons for everything. My opinion is that flat style is best. I hope it will be taken over by just white thin outlines of the icon. Like lines for android. This is the only aspect of future software that I actually think is good. Everything else is just more bloat and botnet, but at least we have sexy icons now.

I drew them myself for an earlier thread

>>
>>56741758
They look amazing, but just a tiny bit more detail isn't always bad, I would say you definitely get the point across, and in the end it's all about being able to quickly identify the program. You are seriously looking at a career as a graphic designer, this is better than half the shit I grade for art school. A vector form would be best, as most operating systems support svg for icons, it's better for AA most operating systems don't use lanczos down scales for icon resampling.

Outsourcing to Beijing is covered by the latter part of my statement. Also do you actually believe graphic designers only deal with company branding?

Why? What can you do about it? If I wanted I could create several graphic design threads here every day, just making them related to technology ("hey guys, what do you think of the icons/branding of those programs/companies") and there would be nothing you could do except shut up and accept it.

Pinnacle of perfection here. Such skill. You're hired.

Flat design exists for a practical reason. You can easily scale flat UI elements to virtually any size display, which works out considering how many 4K mobile displays exist alongside sub-1080 and even sub-720 ones.

The next big trend in design is going to be the impression/illusion of depth and "weight" to elements.

No, graphic designers give graphic designers a bad rep. Half of you faggots have no sense of composition or color harmony, you just slap shit together until it looks good to you. Problem is, most designers have no fucking style so what looks good to you often looks shit to the rest of the world, except other limp wrist hipster trash.

I've heard of similar for flags. The reason for flat design on flags is that it's easier on the eyes and that it's more reconizable. This is especially important when viewing a flag from far away, because it is hard to make out small details at a far distance. Can you imangine if English characters(letters) were as much of a pain in the ass to draw as Chinese? This is why I can still recognize the same sentence in nearly every font. It's just so versatile. Of course there still is a place for more detailed design, such as a painting, a sculpture or acomic, when you are trying to display a more complicated and intricate message to viewers. There is such a thing as over-doing it with details. So details that shouldn't really be their get removed. This makes for a much cleaner, less messy design. Making the image look aesthetic. Of course you need some detail. But only just enough that it's unique and easily dissernable from other designs, so as not to get them confused and also so that your brand is more well-known and memorable. I am not nessecarily in either the minimalist or detailed camp as I see that both have their advantages and disadvantages.

Toilet seats are manufactured in a range of different styles and colors, and they may be furnished matching the style of the toilet itself. They are usually built to fit the shape of the toilet bowl: two examples of this being the elongated bowl and the regular bowl. Some toilet seats are fitted with slow-closing hinges to reduce noise by preventing them from slamming against the bowl. Some seats are made of various types of wooden materials, like oak or walnut, and others are made soft for added comfort. Seats with printed multi-colored designs, such as floral or newsprint, have been fashionable at times. Other designs are made of transparent plastic, encapsulating small decorative items such as seashells or coins. The price of toilet seats varies quite considerably. Decorative textile covers for the toilet seat lid have gone in and out of fashion. Advocates claim that they allow the toilet to be used as a more comfortable seat and provide another way of decorating a bathroom, while critics view them as a sanitation problem which creates unnecessary work. Some metal toilets, such as those in many jails and prisons, have built-in toilet seats that cannot be removed, so that an inmate cannot fashion it into a weapon, shield or escape tool.

I remember watching a small documentary piece about the collapse of any talent coming out of these "art-schools". The dean of one of them basically said it's not worth their while encouraging or even teaching students about classic art anymore. They take the money for the course and let the students pump out any old garbage and give them their degree at the end. It's sad.

I don't think I've seen such a long stream of bullshit in my entire life.

This is like how I wrote essays in high school, but in real life

Why is this allowed?

Are all graphic designers this pretentious?

Nah, if you're not naturally good at painting you can self-teach effectively if you're not a lazy fuck. You don't need an art degree to get work as an artist, though unless you're really specializing and honing existing talent, art ed is useless.

so you're half right?

I gave up before starting. Graphic design sucks.

Let's use text for everything. That will be the next trend. More and more cool fonts will be created, and terminals will be more appealing and intuitive to use.

It seems he's not coming back. Probably went to go cry in a corner or post on his blog about how unfair the world is.

Anyways, To those of you who do graphic design remember this: The better and more detailed you can draw a subject, the more in demand you will be. There is a time and place for minimalism and flat design, but never as the projects main focus. Bullshit sinks your career. If your portfolio is full of nothing but nude and/or pornographic pictures or is chock full of simplistic 'adventure time' style characters, no serious employer will hire you.

P.S. Selfies are not art!
