Creating depth with shadows is the final design trick we'll discuss today. It's a popular trend, and as one can see, it's used in many of the design techniques featured above already. However, there a ...

Sometimes there can be none or very few design features that give an element depth, such as drop shadows, curves, and gradients. Depth can also be easily created by overlapping the grid, and placing s ...

Creating a unique perspective can also add depth, in a very visually appealing way. This method is not as subtle as many other design tricks that create depth, and is often meant to create the main in ...

Creating wrap around has been a very common design trends within the last year or two, and while it's used very commonly, it's also a nice technique that creates depth in design for a nice visual effe ...

Creating realistic interfaces however can take a turn for the worse. We've all seen designs that overly use gradients and drop shadows, and are anything but subtle. The key to creating successful inte ...
