What is the next big aesthetic wave after Flat Design going to be? How much longer will Flat Design last?

poor consumer multimedia, software interface, product & graphic design history, someone will have to salvage it from the damage the 5-minute-clout chasing trannies have done to it

Interesting question! Hard to predict.

Do you guys think we could update this image to be a bit more accurate? Or at least one for each decade or something, because I can think of quite a few more aesthetic/graphic design trends besides these 4.

These changes were driven by technology just as they were taste. Industrial engineering and materials science, improvements in CAD, 3d modelling software and Photoshop (Aqua and Aero owe everything to PS' layer styles feature), the displays that we view these designs on and the restrictions they demand.
Flat design dominates because these technological factors have barely changed in the past 10 years, so the only thing left is taste. And taste has changed, but it's not like Spotify is going to make their logo all-chrometype any time soon. Phone displays have gotten larger and more vibrant; maybe that'll result in skeuomorphism coming back? I dunno.

idk man. Flat is meant to give room for the users to do their thing, but I was brainstorming an idea and i realized i circled back to hipsters of the early 2010s.

How I got there was thinking how everyones lost their optimism for the future. Stagnation, death, and just gloom and doom. I wanted to make a rebelious aesthetic. A kamikaze towards the future, maybe brutalism or punk, having to have a resolute acceptance of death, i figured a more grounded peaceful yet steady approach, better. A walk towards the future instead of going full throttle.

Charcoal and stone finishes for your electronics casings. a matte finish. cables wrapped in a type of woven fiber. Wooden desks and chairs. Not to heavy but more sturdy than the flimsy minimilst breakable stuff. use of earth tones and amber leds. mugs and bowls made of clay.

Thats when i realized I was thinking of a hipsters coffee shop. Hobbits with laptops. maybe dial it back a bit to be less pretentious hipsters and more about being home with mom and dad for the holiday. Home. Anyways, i could go for a dirty chai.

Flat, but even more minimalistic and less colors
like, rudimentary shapes in black and white or shy unattractive color palettes

when i see these images i just imagine that people at the time (80's, 90's, etc) probably felt the same way about this kind of thing like how we do now.

My opinion on 2000's tech has definitely been rehabilitated. I was born in 2002. So when I saw something with the style of what they now call Y2K, it had been associated in my mind with old broken and outdated tech. The
translucent plastic had yellowed, The software was old and slow. It was the markers of the old.
I feel like that must happen to every person, at least while they're growing up with the art style that directly precedes them.

do y'all not have internet?
the new thing is that when the emphasis is on the materials and textures. that tactile 3d feel, minimalistic in shape and color but definitely not flat. using materials and textures that differ not only in color but other properties
for interfaces a great example is microsofts' fluent design or that thing the apple vision pro got goin on
for objects it's like teenage engineering or nothing

idk if this has a name tho, if it does i'm unfamiliar. desu i feel like it's a bit soulless. flexing the technical abilities of our current era but in a mid manner.

also why do i have to wait for 900 seconds for a captcha? is this some new thing?

You'd probably have to query some 60ish year olds for objectivity. I was a kid in the 90s and thought the aesthetic was very distinct from the 80s and in a good way. In the aughts I was a teen/early 20s and thought that we'd seen incredible progress and was very excited. In both cases, the enthusiasm could be attributed to youth.

I dislike the flat design we've been stuck in. It is nihilistic and soulless. I used to mod OSX to look like this for a week at a time, but would never have wanted it to predominate. Am I just getting old or is this objectively awful design? Hard to say.

I don't mind it. The most iconic logos are unreadable. Readability has been the worst thing to happen to design. Every logo is now the name of the company written in helvetica. Anything unreadable is better.

Maybe some kind of a pragmatic style that integrates nature with flat design. It's what corporations would have chosen to please everyone.
