A look at fresh trends in web design – courtesy of Web Design Ledger and Marqui blogs. Plenty of common points on both lists (mobile and further support of HTML5 / CSS3), but both also include some of the more unique/recent things like parallax scrolling, editorial style layouts and quick response/QR.
See the original articles in their entirety here (WDL) and here (Marqui).
