Email design is constantly evolving with consumer preferences, so what trends do you need to be aware of in 2020?<\/h2>\n

Email design trends 2020 are expected to be a<\/span>n amazing combination of flawless visual appeal and technological advancements.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The constant\u00a0endeavor\u00a0of email designers\u00a0<\/span>is to bring a\u00a0<\/span>unique experience to subscribers. <\/span>The biggest validation of this fact is how\u00a0<\/span>email design trends continue to change every year. In 2020, we believe that email designs will be highly interactive and remarkably advanced. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are the top email design trends that we are really excited about this year:<\/span><\/p>\n

Design for dark mode<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Dark mode has gained immense popularity as the usage of digital devices continues to rise.\u00a0<\/span>The colour palette of the email interface changes in the dark mode, as a result of which, the <\/span>copy is displayed on a dark background and light foreground. People with light sensitivity or night shifts at work find it more convenient to read in dark mode.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Check out the facts and figures in relation to digital eye strain and device<\/span> usage:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Dark<\/p>\n

Of course, dark mode cannot solve every issue related to digital devices, but it can certainly reduce them.\u00a0<\/span>This is important from an accessibility point of view as the email layout, colours, and font type are picked <\/span>such that every subscriber can access it.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Apple Mail and Outlook\u00a0<\/span>have already adapted to this trend, and it is likely that all the majo<\/span>r email clients will do so, too.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Take a look at the dark mode email from Email on Acid:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Email<\/p>\n

Use 3D visuals<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Email designers will go a step ahead and use 3D images to garner better subscriber engagement. It will help to convey the message more effectively\u00a0<\/span>as well as make the decision-making process a breeze for the subscriber.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

See how Lyft promotes its <\/span>scooters with the help of a 3D GIF. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Lyft<\/p>\n

Go for s<\/span>eamless design<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Emails should have an ideal width but\u00a0<\/span>with a seamless design. Seamless design refers to the emails that occupy the full screen so that there is no room for distraction. Breaking the visual boundaries\u00a0<\/span>in emails will surely trend in 2020.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Seamless<\/p>\n

Curb the column layout<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Emails usually\u00a0<\/span>follow\u00a0<\/span>the column layout with the email header at the top followed by the hero image, product image, product description, information about the offer, and email footer.\u00a0<\/span>2020 will be about thinking beyond the conventional column layout and choosing broken grids like\u00a0cami<\/span>ah.com does.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Broken<\/p>\n

Create AMP emails<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

The dream-like technology\u00a0<\/span>of filling a form from an email itself has become a reality with AMP in email.\u00a0<\/span>It not only\u00a0<\/span>enables to\u00a0<\/span>create a lightweight email with shorter loading time<\/span> but also builds interactive emails that let the subscriber respond to a survey, complete the checkout process,\u00a0<\/span>or RSVP to an event without being redirected to the landing page.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Some awesome AMP emails\u00a0<\/span>are created by Booking.com,\u00a0Aweber, Doodle,\u00a0<\/span>and Pinterest.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Joining the league of these brands,\u00a0EmailMonks\u00a0developed an AMP email with slider<\/span>\u00a0and accordion in addition to a subscription and contact form.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"AMP<\/p>\n

Try typography<\/span> in emails<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

More than 80% of email recipients can view web fonts in their email clients without any rendering issue. Therefore, <\/span>email marketers are experimenting with different types of typography<\/span>\u00a0to add visual appeal to their emails.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

See how Typo did it for Halloween 2019 email:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Typography<\/p>\n

Rue La\u00a0<\/span>La<\/span>\u00a0uses a typography GIF to capture the reader\u2019s attention and get them to make the purchase.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Email<\/p>\n

2020 will also see more of\u00a0<\/span>bold<\/span>\u00a0typography without any imagery like\u00a0<\/span>EmailMonks<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>has done in their email.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Typography<\/p>\n

Craft m<\/span>inimalistic email designs<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Descriptive illustrations, plenty of white space, and monochrome designs\u00a0<\/span>will\u00a0<\/span>be trending in 2020. These emails will cut through the inbox noise by being easy to read and clearly convey the purpose of the email.<\/span>\u00a0As they are devoid of clutter, they will encourage the reader to take the next action without any overwhelming design elements.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Go interactive<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Interactivity will continue to be email designers' favourite <\/span>trend even in 2020. The futuristic email designs will have interactive elements that will not need any\u00a0<\/span>subscriber activity. Such emails will reduce the unsubscribe rate while imparting a delightful subscriber experience.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Similarly, gamification emails\u00a0<\/span>will also remain as popular as ever.\u00a0EmailMonks\u00a0designed an innovative game for Halloween 2019 where the subscriber was supposed to pick\u00a0<\/span>five items to escape from the ghost.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
