Pretty neat approach with the 8th Sphere website. No real images of anything, just line graphics and a dark background with white text. You don't see that often anymore. I dig this approach. I like the main graphic a great deal, the process/machine one. Pretty crafty....
Some real nice interactions worked into the Surfy website. I love how the main navbar isn't visible until you scroll a bit, then sticks. Then you're presented with a stack of work samples with a slight zoom effect when you mouse over each one. Clever and simple, I...
It's not often that I see a submission and think "badass", this is one of those exceptions. I really dig this portfolio site for Patrik Huebner. The grid, the minimal approach layered over with kick ass graphics and then the little details instilled here and there....
Love the movement and design of this site for Mikiya Kobayashi out of Tokyo. Kobayashi's design work is beautiful, and the site really shows all of it off well. I don't always like the double off-screen / hamburger nav, but they only use it for the Projects page here,...
Nice flat areas for the make up of this layout. They have a masonry type effect on them as well as you resize the browser. Clever. I love the way the images are different sizes and stuff as you scroll down too, keeps it feeling dynamic. From the Designer:...
First and foremost this resource is incredible. Brilliant. Secondly it's a great example of material design in practice. Very clear interactions and super easy ways to get into the content and have the site itself disappear well enough to let it all come through. Very...
I really like the texture used in this design, it breaks of what would otherwise feel like pretty big blank spaces of flat design. I also like the illustrations a good deal.
Beautiful website for what I understand is a beautiful event. I love the 'speaker' pictures that slide in as you scroll down the page. The mobile view simply turns this off. A great mix of cool interaction and an almost minimal approach. Beautiful.
New Uber. New Uber Logo. New Uber Website. Woot. I do like it a great deal.The large video/hero area is pretty slick, even if the contents are all perfect scenarios for the riders/drivers. My favorite part is the sections as you scroll down, those are some pretty nice...

Beautiful design & illustration work for Capra Design's website. I love the asymmetrical layout to the main blocks as you scroll down the page too. Just about every detail has been handled with the design of this website, including the client intake process. Smart...
I love minimal design, especially when I see it utilized for a client like this. It's hard to convince them (typically) of the approach. This site is a great example of how it can work well in a real world scenario. Bravo Garrett. From the Designer: Modern and minimal...
Overall good design and some strong graphics make up this website. Some pretty cool load in animations as you make your way down the page. I like the way the main nav situates itself as you scroll past the hero area/image too.
We've seen this hero/image area pattern before, but I like the animation used in this one, it stands out to me. I also really dig the tight illustration work used down the page here. It's also a single page layout which I like much for this application. From the...
Really solid, well designed client website for Hutch Law. Does just about everything right. I like the bold colors and placement of certain useful elements for the company on the page. From the Designer: New Media Campaigns recently redesigned the website for Hutch...
Very solid, subtle, well designed portfolio website for Gabriel Faucon. I love the subtle details, the way each image fades in slightly as you scroll over each section. Brilliantly minimal yet not at the same time. Good stuff. From the Designer: Gabriel Faucon, Senior...
It's very rare that we look at a Flash site, because for some reason people decided that Flash sites don't work / aren't cool / won't work on your iPhone / whatever. We feel there is still a place for sites like this, especially when you're combining elements to make...
I am not a good beatboxer... but I can now practice my skills (or lack of) on BeatBoxAcademy. A quick, fun, interactive site up top - and really love the parallax image work as you go down the page - nothing too flashy, just right. (BF PF, BFPF... Beastie Boys the...
Wow - this is an information architect's dream site - the Aquatic Macroinvertebrate Collection site from the Carnegie Museum of Natural History out of Pittsburgh. IA's will love the structure of the order of classification of living things - plus this site has a lot...
Portfolio of Isaias Mulatinho out of Brazil - I like the red and white on the black - and the cool logo. From the Designer: This is a release of my works during the last years, branding, designing and marketing. Thank you for appreciating. Submitted by: Isaias...
There is some rather interesting interaction/animation on this site. I like the way the elements load up the first time you visit. It can be a bit slow to react to you as you make your way through it, which I could see may lead to some confusion on the user's part....
Be sure to refresh a few times - very cool images and typography - but we like Slack's site because it cuts to the chase - the one thing they want you to do here is "Create a New Team" - CTA is key - looking good is smart too.

Pretty slick looking layout for Studio Rodrigo. I really like the big open areas matched up with smaller product images in a small grid like it has. Pretty solid design as you scroll down the home page too. Love this site.
Pretty nifty single page style portfolio website. The tightness of the details all work well together visually and I really like the interaction design on the main project images. Good work! Submitted by: Mahmoud Kida Twitter: @mahmoudkida Role: Designer Country:...
I really like the simple approach of just centering the design here. The illustration is spot on and makes me want to see what this app will look like. Solid construction. From the Designer: This is the pre-launch landing page for a new productivity startup: Build...
I dig the oversized image scroll and large text. I also like the navigation fly-out design too. Pretty nifty looking work to boot.
Really nice layout, it immediately draws me in with the animated illustration and the nav being in the lower left corner(ish). I also like the soft color palette and a lot of the asymmetric layout decisions. Beautiful work. From the Designer: New iteration on my...
Seriously good minimal layout here. I extra love the selection choice to display the work links in line or with images. The bold typography displayed next to simple project images is always a good choice and it's worked to perfection here. From the Designer: Studio...
It's a pretty standard looking layout, I like most things about it too. What I like most is the 2nd section, the card/block design of the individual project focused part. Strong. The bold read color really helps give things weight too. Submitted by: Jonathan Ryan...
