15 Inspiring Examples of Vibrant Gradients in Graphic Design

Use of vibrant gradients in graphic design is quite popular at this moment. Most recently, we have seen this trending gradient effect on the product page of the new iPhone X as well as in its vivid gradient wallpapers.

Bright and contrasting hues blending beautifully with each other create a visually intense experience. In this article, we are showcasing 15 brilliant projects from designers around the world who have used a rich spectrum of colors to bring lots of vibrancy in their work. There’s a range of different types of designs, including posters, wallpapers, editorials, branding, packaging and abstract art pieces.

Colors are visually stimulating and some of these designs use colors alone as a medium to express emotions. While some combine them with creative typography and graphic shapes to create contemporary designs. With this collection, we hope to inspire you to go bold with color palettes and gradients in your own projects. We also recommend you to go through these infographics to have a better understanding of the color psychology and for choosing the right colors for your work.
