Print Design Influence
While designing for delight is primarily about impressing visitors with
unexpected and pleasing touches to a design, modern Web designers often
go one step further and experiment with the underlying details of their
work, producing more creative and unique layouts. In fact, one doesn’t
have to be an expert to see the growing influence of traditional print
design techniques on the Web. They are often manifested in so-called “art-
directed” blog posts, whereby every blog post has a unique and carefully
crafted design.
The layouts of these websites often resemble those of print magazines or
posters, with striking headlines, multi-column text, highlighted quotations,
indented text, supporting imagery, sidenotes and footnotes. The designs
usually adhere to grids and have strong, vivid typography.
