A few years ago, Taschen released a heavy volume of web design history, edited by edited by Julius Wiedemann – Web Design: The Evolution of the Digital World 1990-Today.
The survey in the book ends in 2018.
In this brief, students are asked to continue the story by adding a new chapter – how does the current year in web design look like? They will have to identify current design trends, major innovations, notable websites, and organize the information following the examples in the book.
Depending on the number of students, they can work on one year, or on several missing years (2019, 2020, 2021…).
