[IT] Trend #2: Bento Grid Layouts. Inspired by iOS widgets, offering modularity and clear visual hierarchy.

[IT] Trend #3: Refined Micro-interactions. Subtle animations that make interfaces more intuitive.

[IT] Trend #4: Native Dark Mode. No longer optional but an expectation.

[IT] Trend #5: Voice UI and Conversational Design.

[IT] What to AVOID: infinite carousels, hamburger menus on desktop, auto-play video with sound.
