Web Design Inspiration Curated

American Assoc. of Homecare

I like the changes in the way the main nav and "tools" nav are handled in the transition between screen widths. Nice simple clean design makes it easy to get in and out of the content.

Pretty nifty interactions and page load animation. Keeps the site very memorable visually.

Apple Crumbs

The distinct navigation layout change going from the desktop to smaller screen widths is a very nice difference from most other responsive sites's i've been seeing. There's also a lot of interaction built in as you mouse over and click on the various elements and...

Michel Doudin

Marked by some really fun interactions with they keyboard, this portfolio site for Michel Doudin is well done. It's an interesting way for sure to serve up your work visually to others.

Damn, I love websites that just embrace their purpose and put it front and center to the core of what it's all about. This website is a portfolio, so make that the home page. Brilliant! I also love the "A bit more about me..." part of the about page, one of the more...

Himanshu & Saumya

Talk about a narrative driven website. This one is very nicely crafted with the animated illustrations and the timeline that slides in from the left and right telling the story of the wedding party. Lovely lovely website here.

Beauxlent

It's a pretty standard and simple layout but accentuated by that nice leaf illustration. That illustration is the central focus of the design and makes you really start your visual journey around the page there in the center of the page almost.

Mobilla

What a richly packed layout we have here. It's simple and open yet very dense visually at the same time. That's very hard to achieve and Mobilla does it very well. I especially like the main hero image that's responsive and static almost with the iPhone and hand that...

Manos

Super beautifully crafted website design. The colors, typography layout choices - it just sings! Just beautiful! I really love how the main nav slides up to be a fixed header from the home page on. Seamless and smart feeling.

Flywheel

Nicely done coming soon page, it's almost a full site really. The single page actually does it justice since it's so concise. I like the way the email signup stays readily visible as you scroll down - almost becoming more so because of the animation.

Swerve Concepts

I like the clear blocky grid for this design. Right angles and squared off images, then the big oversized slideshow at the top. Pretty common layout formula but it's pretty groovy here to me. Pretty funny use of the animal heads throughout the site. Humor is funny.

I like the left to right changing layout. Very asymmetrical and open vibe. I also dig the mobile nav design, feels really app like. Clever stuff.

Built By Buffalo

I LOVE the new Built By Buffalo design. So clean and sharp. The hexagon shapes feel very new compared to other sites too. Slick responsive design solution that's just as clean and concise as other screen width versions of it. Beautiful! Ascii buffalo head FTW!

Submitted by: Zoltan Garami @garamiz Role: Designer I like the placement of the red behind the white text that's over the monochromatic image. I know it's simple and been done before but it's nicely done here and I just like it. The logo is nicely placed in the center...

215.dk

I love subtle design and this site is a perfect example of that. The left right arrows that match up with the keypad, then the simple placement of interactions/controls. Like when you click on menu and the big X is over the content of the previous page/view. Love it....

Andrew Lohman

Submitted by: Andrew Lohman @ajlohman Role: Designer & Developer A simple responsive personal site with some nice little details. Really brilliantly simple design. I love how the logo stays put as you scroll down the page, disappears behind the portfolio section then...

An Event Apart

The new An Event Apart site had landed. It's a well done example of clean design and responsive/mobile-first implementation. I think we'd all except no less from the masters themselves. They've given us a nice writeup on the site re-launch on their new blog too. I...
