13 Design Styles

01. Glass & Glazed Texture

This involves rendering the visual subject with a glass or glazed texture. In layout, the subject is typically overlaid on text. The transparent material causes the text to refract, creating a strong visual contrast.

03. Stainless Steel Texture

Many designs categorize this stainless steel texture style entirely under Acid Graphic. However, I believe the differences are quite significant. Firstly, the color palette for this stainless steel texture is black, white, and gray, not colorful gradients. Secondly, the overall poster's main色调 typically remains black, white, and gray, resulting in a more understated and minimalist visual effect, devoid of the “acidic” feel.

04. Fluorescent Style

Popularized by the series of posters for the movie *Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse*, the Fluorescent Style features a graffiti-like aesthetic. It employs highly saturated contrasting colors, creating a glaring, dizzying sensation. Nonetheless, its visual impact is undeniably strong, conveying a cool and trendy vibe.

05. Diffused Gradient Illustration

Diffused gradient is a gradient effect achieved through blurring, resembling the spread of ink wash. It often incorporates a slight noise texture. Using this gradient effect to create simple illustrations yields a clean, fashionable feel, frequently applied in food海报.

06. Flat Geometric Illustration

This refers to creating purely two-dimensional illustrations using simple geometric shapes. The effect is simple and abstract. This style has long been a favorite among designers, so it's not a recent trend. However, the use of RGB colors can enhance the visual impact. Combined with flexible outlines and排版 treatments, this style has become increasingly modern and fashionable.

07. New Ugly Style

This controversial design style favors bold, glaring color schemes, such as magenta paired with green. The illustrations are casual, akin to children's drawings, and the layout and composition are often non-rigorous, completely defying traditional definitions of good design—hence the name "New Ugly." It should be used cautiously in commercial design.

08. Three-Dimensional Typography

These designs typically focus on typography without pictorial elements. The main text is rendered with a three-dimensional visual effect through 3D mapping or distortion, which starkly contrasts with the usual presentation of text, resulting in strong visual impact.

The atmosphere is relatively sci-fi, typically featuring robots or mechanically augmented human figures as the visual subject. Title fonts generally use clean, sharp sans-serif typefaces. Additionally, interface frames resembling circuit board designs are common design elements in this style.
