Prepare Yourself for 2022
While the year is running out at a much faster speed than anyone might have expected, it is now time already to start looking forward to what will be hip and happening in 2022. Even if it might still feel far off to you, it is not, says one of the leading graphic design firms in San Diego, Storm Brain. This team of creative masterminds is all excited about what they see is bound to be the trends for next year in their industry and are keen to expand on what to expect within the very near future. Often the colour palette chosen for any design sets the tone of the emotions you want to portray. When it comes to 2022, these emotions are all to do with instilling a sense of calmness and tranquillity. Globally, you might experience a sense of stress and feelings of inundation controlling the lives of many, while we are dealing with the aftermath of Covid-19. As the shock of initial events might have worn off by now, people are still battling to overcome the many losses experienced worldwide and this is a great contributing factor to the increased levels of stress and anxiety we witness everywhere.

Thanks to advances in technology, it is not only possible to design far more complex designs with motion, but many more people can access these designs on their smart devices and storytelling is bound to become the preferred medium to get your message across.
As an add-on to the far simpler designs that you will see in the new year, these designs will also tend to show more geometric shapes. This is due to the simplicity these shapes showcase and brings to any design. Thus, there will be many more squares and circles or even half-circles, corners and straight lines fulfilling a dominant role in the graphic designs awaiting us.
Content-rich infographics will remain part of campaigns right into next year, but designers will be stripping these info-graphics to showcase nothing but the necessary to remain in line with delivering a message that is easy to read and even easier to understand. As the pandemic resulted in a ton of data that had to be conveyed, the trend will be to still convey information effectively but in a minimal manner. Throughout history, major events have always impacted industries much wider than what the world initially expected and it is no different when it comes to Covid-19. Thus,
