To improve your color brochures and add that hip and trendy theme, you will want to use new type color brochures that people do not see every day. Leave those Arial fonts and Times New Roman fonts behind. Go for the web 2.0 fonts that look cuter, sleeker and more fluid. These types of font styles are what people consider hip and trendy.

5. Add gloss effects. Also try to add gloss effects. Gloss effects also contribute to the sleek type style for trendy brochures of course. Gloss effects add that extra smooth look that people identify with a lot of the more popular prints and even websites of the day. This is because gloss effects add more dynamic colors into your design that makes things look more appealing.

So for example, your brochure background can seamlessly change from one color to another with perfect blending in between. Believe me a lot of people are doing this with their prints, and you should never really miss the opportunity to do so as well before it gets old.

7. Get better materials. Finally try to find better materials. The higher the quality, the trendier those brochure looks. Moreover, you will be able to maintain them and make them last a lot longer with better brochure printing materials. So make sure you try to allocate as much as you possibly can for printing.

Now you can improve your brochures and make them trendier more easily. Just go through these improvements one by one with your design, and you will see great results from your brochure prints.
