Web Design Inspiration Curated

Stuff & Nonsense

It isn't that "new" of a re-launch now but the new Stuff & Nonsense website is as always wonderful. I love the responsive header illustrations. Both informing and entertaining - which is how Mr. Clarke always is.

Chichester Design

The Chichester Design website is deeply invested in it's content. Every page has a custom structure and the content is coupled with a variety of illustration to convey a message clearly. The tight design and friendly aesthetic are engaging and easy to read. Plus,...

Parker Iain

Parkeriain.com is a portfolio site with a simple, but well conceived structure. I like how the footer has been strategically used to create a call to action on every page. It's a small detail, but effective when flipping through the portfolio detail pages. Solid...

Lots of Donuts

Lots of Donuts is fun as hell. It's beautiful and simple, which I love. The parallax effect has gotten a lot of play in the last few years, but it's cool and fits the tone of the site. The art is great, too. Now, I just want donuts...

Kin HR

Beautifully designed product site here for Kin HR. I like the bold nature of the layout with all the screen/interaction displays down the page. I also dig how the nav slides up with you and fixes into place. That little bit of movement makes it really obvious to the...

Digest

The Digest is a beautifully editorial site that displays a tight print design sensibility. It's a site that takes the idea of a magazine and translates the best of that medium to the web. The pages are fairly heavy at 4-5 MB, but the lush photography is largely worth...

The Pushpa Project

The Pushpa Project is a narrative site that seems to draw strongly from print design. The minimal color does a great job of focusing the reader's attention on the text. I really enjoy the site's primary navigation, which does a great job of reenforcing the content's...

Balinov

Clever looking design. I like the Isotope interface piece and how it's used, in that the design isn't just based on using it. Beautiful work too.

fontwalk.de

Really cool way to show off the fonts. It is almost indeed like taking a walk or a tour. Lovely.

Gionaf

Really nifty interaction design. I like how the interactions allow you to play, the left and right sides of what this person can do are represented pretty well with this design too. It's also responsive which looks like it was a lot of work.

Kult

Good simple layout, just kind of a blocky and bold presentation of stuff. What's interesting to me is how when you interact with the menu it grays out the content, keeping you focused on the menu navigation itself. What do you guys think of that?

Flickable

You don't see too many "fashion" sites that are decently done. If you have, please send 'em in to us. This one is of course over the top with all the "pop" stuff but it is well done. It's responsive, and has some nifty interactions when you scroll to make it...

Cognitect

Pretty slick looking design. I love the colors and illustration work a lot. I also really dig the interactions/animations on the main marquee blocks - those are just great. Overall a really great and simple experience picked up by some clever illustration and...

Ad Age

I dig the new Ad Age website. I like the top section that has the black background and how it uses that section for featured content. As you make your way down the page there's some nice "sectioning" of specific styles of content. I love how the header section changes...

Five Simple Steps

The Five Simple Steps isn't one of those sites that has tons of interactions and moving elements. But the design is simple and effective. I really like how the main hero image/area isn't just a big JPG, that'd be lazy, they add the extra effort and make the text...

Wistia

This is a great example of how you can use a simple game like experience to create something memorable. Go ahead, click the colored boxes, they "pop" like one of those addicting games on your phone. The overall website experience is superb for a product/company site...

OX

Great design and vibe throughout this site design. I like the transitions between screen widths too. Loud coloring to help push the products as well as bold previews of the artwork itself.

Obsurfation

I'm not a surfer, nor live near an ocean, but if I did i'd use this app just because of the website. I love the slight animation of the waves and the little mouse interactions here and there.

Subtraction

New site design for Subtraction, which is Khoi Vinh's personal website. Know to be pretty prolific in writing posts i've been a visitor to his blog for years. The new site follows the same basic form that the old one did with the black and white treatment and lines....

CodeKit

The CodeKit page/site is one of the better product pages i've seen. Plenty of good design down the page, animation, funny little sections and a superb overview of the guts of the app itself.
