Embracing Weirdness in Design: Why Strange Banners Are Worth Your Time

This weird banner took me quite some time to make. You know what?

I love wild and strange banners.

There’s something refreshing about creating something that doesn’t fit the usual template, something that stands out in a sea of sameness.

Design is often treated as a perfect science—colors must match, grids must align, and every element has to follow the rules.

But creativity doesn’t always live in perfection. Sometimes, the most memorable work comes from experimentation, from breaking the rules, from letting your ideas be a little messy.

Yes, these banners are not perfect.

Sometimes they’re illogical, sometimes they feel chaotic.

But I’m still learning, and that’s the fun part. Every mistake teaches me something new. Every weird choice pushes me to see possibilities I might have ignored if I was just following the standard. Creative professions are exciting because they allow this kind of growth, this freedom to explore and iterate.

In a world full of identical templates and repetitive designs, embracing strangeness is more than a personal preference—it’s a style. It signals confidence, originality, and a willingness to experiment. And for anyone in creative fields, that willingness to take risks is invaluable.

So yes, maybe two hours for this banner seems like a lot, but it’s time spent exploring, learning, and celebrating the weird side of design. And honestly, that’s what makes it all worthwhile.

✨ In a world of identical templates, being weird isn’t just fun—it’s a statement.
