Bright colors – Color solutions are becoming one of the biggest trends in medical website design in 2020. Our web design & development agency decided to keep up and create a website in bright and deep colors. The dominant color on the site is blue because it is the color of the company’s brand.

UPQODE’s web designers have combined it with an orange gradient to highlight important elements and improve the user experience.
