The Design Element

It doesn't seem like a true color trend pops up very often. But lately one has become incredibly clear to me. The usage of gray on the web is definetly on the upswing. Is gray the new black? The new blue? What ever it is, its being used a lot. It does make me wonder if it is a reflection of the economy and our bleak future. Who knows. There are some fantastic examples here and I am really enjoying the trend.
