New comment by rchaud in "Web Design 3.0: When Your Web Design Matters"

Thanks for putting this together. I don't know if "Web Design 3.0" is a term people recognize, but I do agree that this particular style is based around bringing in more elements from print design to digital. CSS3, Flexbox and now CSS Grid has made a lot of that possible.

The bigger challenge now is that "web design" isn't really respected as a discipline, since half of the customers associate it with cheap templated Wordpress/Drupal sites, and the other half care only about utility (if it's a web app), and little to nothing about how the design speaks to its brand. It's their call of course, and if they want a barebones site, it's on the designer to show them that a custom design can bring in more business.

PS - the Pinterest-sourced design examples are nice. I wouldn't have discovered them myself since Pinterest's UX and takeover of Google Image search results has soured me on them.
