A screenshot of an HTML button that is outlined in thick black, has the same cream color as the background of the rest of the image, and has a rectangle box shadow going down and to the right. The edges have no radius, giving it a sharp appearance of depth. Inside the button it says “All posts”.

Internet places have a feeling. This one feels good, cozy, and comfortable—a place you actually want to spend time, unlike the blue place and the bird place.

Good design is timeless.

The things that you perceive as having good design and aesthetics—chances are, those things could have been created years or decades ago, and yet they still look great today. That’s good aesthetic design.

New button style on my blog! I’ve seen this design become popular lately. Is it a resurgence of something older? It’s retro yet modern.
