1. The revival of punk
After retro, it is now the turn of punk to reinvent itself. Though never extinct, countercultural sentiment has been revived in the wake of Elizabeth II’s death. With the monarchy’s colonialist legacy underlined, there has been a resurgence of mismatched lettering and frenzied decoupage. The punk productions are zealous, screeching, and chaotic. From all this aggressiveness radiates a form of honesty deeply loved by certain audiences.

2. Psychedelic Surrealism
The popularity of surrealism is still going strong in 2023. This year, its wackiness mates with the airbrushing processes of the 1980s resulting in a phantasmagorical world which many designers are embracing with brilliance.

3. Mysticism
Given the popular fascination with astrology and symbolism, it’s no surprise that related graphic trends also flourish. The fine lines, the almost organic inflections and the delicate symbols create a meditative experience. One does not need to read tarot cards to be able to inhale the tranquility of these mystical designs.

4. Abstract gradients
These gradients have been glowing for a while now, especially when they are involved in digital content. In 2023, these polychromatic abstractions carry on as a quintessential trend of modern graphic design. Oviform bodies, blurs and contrasting palettes are harmonized to provide seamless spaces. When combined with motion graphics, the result is an eminently elegant sense of weightlessness.
