Design over the Decades just to Get inspired by 1990's graphic design trends: Classical drafts of 90's

The way you remember the 90s is probably very different from how your peers remember it. This could be explained by your age when you lived through the decade but more likely attributed to the wide range of styles available.

Early in the ’90s, there were a lot of echoes from the ’80s, including amplifications of New Wave and Memphis-style patterns, bright and pastel neon colors, and geometry. But this is not what defines the 90s decade of design.

The design trends of the 1990s can sometimes be challenging to put a finger on. While previous decades had weltT-defined trends associated with each period, the 90s focused more on individualism than any decade before it.

Influenced by fashion, music, videos, and magazines of this decade, along with the globalization of the internet, it’s no wonder there was such a wide range of design styles prevalent during this time., it’s no wonder there was such a wide range of design styles prevalent during this time.

Rock, indie, British pop, grunge, and electronic rave music ruled the decade, influencing a “carefree” design style throughout. This decade also faced some polarization in the design styles influenced by music. Neon and psychedelic smileys lived on the club culture side of things. These were opposed by the carefree grunge mood and fun-loving style of Britpop.

The start of the decade experienced a carryover of design styles from the 80s; this is really where the similarities ended. In the time of Kurt Cobain, Stone Temple Pilots, The Spice Girls, and Oasis, the ultimate goal of the 90s was to be cool. This was reflected in the designs and styles of some of the “coolest” bands of the time.

If the 90s were to be remembered for any singular design trend, it would have to be the typography.

From the infamous creation of Comic Sans (1994) to the creation of Microsoft WordArt, novelty typography played a considerable role in the decade’s design trends. With vector software readily available to designers of all levels, and most designs from this decade immortalized on the internet, there are plenty of examples to draw inspiration from.

  • Minimalism ??? ╰┈┈┈? ????? ???????? ╰┈? ???????

The latter years of the decade brought the beginning of the global movement of minimalism. Influenced by leaders in the fashion industry, namely Calvin Klein, designs of the late 90s were filled with clean lines and neutral color palettes emphasizing elegance.

The minimalism trend continued through fashion into interior design, products, branding, and of course, graphic design. Monochromes and black and white photography ruled the design landscape and set high marks for today’s brand design.

From furniture to fashion, minimalism has been the most resilient design style to emerge in the 1990s.

From the legacy of 80s geometric patterns and maximalism to the global minimalist movement, and peppered with musical influences and novelty fonts, the 90s sure had a lot going on.

But the cool thing about this decade is that designers today can select which 90s design theme they want to emulate, and almost everyone will be able to identify it as an influence of the 1990s.
