2010 Web Design Trend: Hand Drawn Elements

Many of today’s websites are now incorporating hand drawn or sketch elements into their designs. A hand drawn element can give a website a more personalized, unique, and organic feel,  making a design stand out from traditional web graphics. They key to this trend is to use the elements as an accent to the design and not as the main focus. You do not want to overwhelm the viewer by having a site covered with doodles, instead, use it sparingly to enhance specific elements in the design. Check out examples of hand drawn elements:

    Me and a friend were just chatting about this a couple of days ago. We barely agree on anything, so we just decided that I was right and so was he…but he was wrong (and you’re right!).
