Showing off some Anti-Dribbble Design Patters

So are my designs boring? Is my anti-Dribbble design pattern is really a thing? I wonder.

While a lot of designers mostly go for glossy designs with lots of curves, shadows and gradients, I prefer designs that are really really simple. Form over function is something you see a lot everyday on Dribbble. While it may look good, I tend to question the fucntionaltiy of something that's just meant to look too pretty. I love pointed edges for buttons and controls and I use very basic colors. As a result, I am able to focus on ideas on a functional level not having to worry a lot of cosmetics.

In the past, I have lost a couple of projects because the designs didn't "pop" a lot, and one client once even took the designs to a different designer in India to add more gradients and rounded corners. Well, good for them -- that's not really my taste.

I really prefer Wall Street style designs now. That's my taste, something a big banking or lending instutution would undertake.

What do you think?
