2026 Design Trends Director

Matches any creative brief to the top 2026 graphic design trends and turns them into palettes, type direction and ready-to-use AI image prompts.

Design & UIBeginner★ 145⑂ 28AI score 8/10Last updated: Apr 2, 2026

What it does

  • Catalogs 10 dominant 2026 design trends (plus 2 honorable mentions) based on the Kittl × Savee trend report.
  • Structures your brief (audience, brand personality, platform) then recommends 1 primary + 1–2 supporting trends instead of dumping all ten.
  • Gives visual DNA, color palette, typography direction, combine/avoid pairings, and prompt keywords for Midjourney, DALL·E, Flux and Ideogram.
  • Produces mood board write-ups and style-guide language ("We are… / We are NOT…").

Who it's for

  • Designers and art directors shaping a brand identity or visual refresh.
  • Marketers who need to translate "make it more modern" into precise style vocabulary.
  • Solo creators and small brands aiming for a consistent look from AI image tools.

Examples

  1. Craft coffee brand → Blueprint Design + Naive Design combo, with a packaging AI prompt.
  2. Electronic music festival social campaign → Signal Graphics + Distorted Portrait + Surveillance layering with Instagram/TikTok prompts.
  3. Meditation app rebrand → Grainy Blur + Trinket Design to escape the generic "calm gradient" category look.

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the skills/ai-design/design-trends-2026 folder from the GitHub repo guia-matthieu/clawfu-skills into my ~/.claude/skills/design-trends-2026/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/guia-matthieu/clawfu-skills.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r clawfu-skills/skills/ai-design/design-trends-2026 ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open your terminal.
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/guia-matthieu/clawfu-skills.git
  3. Create the skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the skill: cp -r clawfu-skills/skills/ai-design/design-trends-2026 ~/.claude/skills/
  5. If the repo ships a docs/kittl-2026-trends image folder, copy it along too for the visual references (the skill still works without it).
