How to use circles in website design

Circles are a relatively new development in web design. From the boxy days of web design’s youth, our contemporary works have evolved beyond what many would have imagined in those early days of the www. This current embrace of the circular ways is most likely due to the fact that, until recently, it wasn’t easy to create circular elements without the use of images.

With the ease that one can now use CSS to create circles, they are becoming much more commonplace in web design. They are cropping up all over the landscape. Many feel that circles are more difficult to use in web design, and there are arguments to be made there. However, if we stick to a good grid and maintain plenty of whitespace throughout, a circle based design can put a fresh and exciting face on a site.
