Love this site from Theory 11. There is so much going on, but it still stays organized (good for shopping) - and has some fun pages too (like the About page). Done by @Forefathers - who has a great site themselves - and looks like it's a custom Shopify theme. More...

REEB Ranch

REEB Ranch

From our friends in Asheville, NC - Open Door Design Studio - is the site for REEB Ranch. It's clean and vibrant, and really emphasizes the event nature of the facility. More from the Designers below: From the Designer: Born from the love of beers, bikes and beautiful...

Bulldog Yoga

Bulldog Yoga

I am not going to say something like "a little namaste for your morning"... but I did. We're big believers in yoga in our family - and most yoga studio sites we've seen are... not in line with the rest of their flow. Bulldog Yoga, out of Pennsylvania, has a great site...

Collserola

Collserola

It's a simple formula, the design for the Collserola site. Nice fade in interactions and a solid simple grid make this design rock solid IMHO. I'm not wild about the splash area but since the overall production is simple and straight forward it works out. From the...

RINS

RINS

Amazingly simple website layout with some pretty solid simple design work. I love the photos and the interactions on the letters, it draws you in and makes the simplicity work. From the Designer: ​We don't just create beautiful designs but also functional and usable...

Designkwartier

Designkwartier

Super strong grid based design. The layout and details feel very scandanavian to me. I love it so much. It's not responsive, which is a shame but I still love it. From the Designer: Graphic design agency Designkwartier aka Marcel van Wijk one-man-designstudio based in...

Blackbox Design

Blackbox Design

Really cool full width layout with a strong grid based. It's made up of largely squares and the grid, it really is a strong layout, it feels kind of "traditional" to me but the type and colors make it look really futuristic. Real solid design here. From the Designer:...

Make Your Money Matter

Make Your Money Matter

Excellent story-driven intro to the Make Your Money Matter site - a "brochure" site for using credit unions over banks. The flat illustrations are great as you scroll through the intro - and the final resting part of the site is very smartly done from a marketing /...

Milk Magazine

Milk Magazine

Slick yet simple approach to the layout for Milk Magazine. I love how the main/top section has some overlapping elements like that, then the nav slides up and locks into place as you scroll down. It all fits together and "feels" very purposeful.

The Met

The Met

Holy cow, where to start. Really, it's a huge website with tons of content and the designers have done a superb job of getting you at it. All the while maintaining style and vibe that matches the Met. Spend some time going through this site okay, you'll dig it.

Maria De La Guardia

Maria De La Guardia

Pretty cool, basic, Material Design based portfolio site for Maria De La Guardia. I dig the icon/illustration work on the hero/splash are and then how it kind of "dives" straight down into the work like that. Strong work.

Elespacio

Elespacio

Very nice splash/hero type layout for the main page on Elespacio. My favorite section is the portfolio though. The way the image/photos are done to really pop off the page like they do. Solid.

Spring Summer

Spring Summer

The first thing that hits you is the photography, it pulls you in. Then there's some superb typography everywhere. Solid rhythm implied with the layout as you scroll down the page, it almost sings to you as you take it in.

Radar #137

Radar #137

Each week, we do a round up of curated "stuff from the interwebs" that we call Radar. In this week's 137th Radar: Designers shouldn’t code. They should study business. I’m not saying we should start shipping poorly designed experiences. We have to keep growing and...

Kodo Nishimura

Kodo Nishimura

Pretty cool scrolling interaction/animation here. I like the menu design too. It's kind of set for a lot of pogo-sticking for it's navigation interactions but I suppose that's all well and good for this specific site.

Perth Device Lab

Perth Device Lab

Damn! Super nice website for the Perth Device Lab. And also, Damn, I want one of these... Seriously, pretty swank site.

CrossFit

CrossFit

The CrossFit.com website has come a looooong way recently. This design isn't perfect and I know there has been some hubub on it's message boards about some UX issues. But really, it's been optimized for mobile and tablets over desktop users. That's really the crux of...

Haus

Haus

Yep, scroll jacking, but get over it. 🙂 some beautiful screens to look at here and it works pretty well. Especially the main nav once you open it up, simple and to the point.

Make My Lemonade

Make My Lemonade

Make My Lemonade is really just a straight forward blog design, but the details. Oh man, the details. I love all these little things cooked into the design. Like the drop-down style nav menus and the little wing dings here and there down the page. It's also broken up...

Serial

Serial

Yes - I know, I'm late to the party on Serial - I'm still in Season One, and I'm hooked! As far as the design - what first pulled me to this site was actually the podcast player - I've spent a lot of time on podcasts of all kinds in the past couple of months, and have...

Allt

Allt

I love product websites like these, to see the way other designers handle showing off products. This one is superb. I love the hero image area and then how it scrolls quickly and down into some short and sweet product photos. It lets you dig in quick and the editorial...

Allbirds

Allbirds

Very nice product website for the Allbirds shoes. I freaking love this site design. It's almost immersive. The photography and editorial for the different sections is all very well done and the timing on placement and video, etc... makes me smile. Now to get my hands...

Bolden

Bolden

Dayum man. I love the bold approach to the typography here, it's a breath of fresh air really. Simple and to the point too. Some nice detail work here and there, solid and awesome work.

Vincent

Vincent

It took me a bit to figure out just what this website was for, but once I got it, it's all good. Beautiful design pieces and the website itself has a lot of visual power to me. Romance!

Airforce

Airforce

New(ish) website for the US Airforce here. There is some serious inspiration to gain from this site. It's executed quite well and has a ton of detail work. Like the main navigation design, I love how it becomes another part of the website almost, not just a big menu...

Seattle Space Needle

Seattle Space Needle

Get ready to scroll up - the Seattle Space Needle site is simple, and to the point - just a cool way to do something different, thate really makes sense for the location / building - upward and onward!

Phillip Nessen

Phillip Nessen

Suuuuper simple layout for the portfolio website of Phillip Nessen. But man, it has some real badass typography and illustration work going on. Love this stuff.
