Web Design Inspiration Curated
thisisyoke.com
Submitted by: Jay Bigford @thisisyoke Role: Designer & Developer Man, that is a nice illustration! thisisyoke.com is a gem of a site. Great structure, an emphasis on content, strong use of tone and character, great art. This site pretty much has it all. It just...
cofinery.com
Admittedly, there's not yet much on this site. I don't know what the final intent will be, but in it's current state, I like what's going on. There's this thing called CoFinery. The page briefly states what that is, what it means, who's involved, and various ways to...
imagemechanics.com.au
Imagemechanics.com.au is a single page scroller that pages like a more traditional site. The transitions between content 'pages' are very smooth and sophisticated, especially transitioning away from the homepage. The navigation doesn't really feel like a traditional...
yaronschoen.com
Via @TrentWalton Yes! @Yarcom is responsivized! http://yaronschoen.com/articles/re_did_my_site_again/ & @Beep Look at that hot shit right there. Go @Yarcom! More from @TrentWalton I think my favorite bit is the work page, with its badass tappable next/prev nav:...
americanselect.org
Americanselect.org does a great job of making somewhat mundane tasks really interesting. For instance, when you "choose your colors" (rank political issues by importance to you), instead of maybe a checkbox form of dropdown where you can choose their rank, you are...
snowdenindustries.com
Snowdenindustries.com is all about drama. It has a sense of typographic scale that dwarfs most sites and uses sweeping lines and broad shapes that fill the monitor. It definitely designed to be an experience that impresses. Their portfolio is excellent. The timing on...
raisetheroofproductions.com
Really a simple and beautiful website. I love the use of the vertical parallax here to show the sun setting. The clouds and bird illustrations are wonderful. Great looking website.
intellisult.com
Well, thats just silly... but I love the humor and animation. I put in Julia's name and got this "Julia is a cruelly ill-mannered coccydynia and a reprehensible halitosis-infested mass of existential impotence". Whats not to love?
2011.full-frontal.org
I like the colors of this conference website. The strong graphic look works well with the typeface too. I do feel like there may be too much of that hand written "colored" in type, a good pairing mixed into the thick of it would go a long way. The second typeface...
barcampomaha.org
Barcampomaha.org is very nice dark site. The register button is an obvious call to action and the site is friendly and visually engaging. It employs a lot of convention but is executed really nicely. We go to barcamps around the southeast all the time and sometimes...
marielaurent.fr
Marielaurent.fr is a playful site with as strong sensibility toward stark lines and images. Unlike many portfolio sites, which are minimal and simple so as not to overshadow the portfolio pieces, the design and interactive elements of marielaurent.fr are definitely an...
weblounge.be
This is a site full of vibrance. There's a mix of a lot of animation, 3D treatment, and rich colors and textures that could seem overwhelming, but I actually enjoy it. The home page is still easy to scan despite what might seem like visual clutter. The overall look is...
brandonrike.com
Brandonrike.com is a really nice dark site. It does a great job of showing off Brandon's work while feeling as sophisticated and graphic as his work. Sounds like Brandon's got a cool gig, too. Who wouldn't want to make badass t-shirts for bands all day?
punchfork.com
Punchfork looks like a recipe aggregator, they even have an API so you can pull in recipes into your own app. Neat. I love the utilitarian design. Just nice pics and straight up recipe info. This website is screaming to be responsive too, i'm sure they're working on...
jorgerigabert.com
Lots of really subtle things in this website design. I like the main navigation sidebar, how the icons and colors change as you scroll through the pages/sections. I also really like how the design is relying on illustration to help emphasis sections like it is. It's...
aw-digital.com
Interesting interactions on this website for sure. I dig that things are placed in circle like this, it gives it a really dynamic look. Some of the transformations the shapes make on interactive items when you use them are pretty slick and look great. One thing digs...
methoddesignlab.com
Method Design Lab's tagline is "Innovation through design", and they claim to be the "first accelerator to take a design-centric, user experience driven approach to innovation." As an organization that talks about user experience being something that differentiates,...
drupalcampatlanta.com
Pretty nifty looking conference website design. I love the colors and bold typography here. I also like what they've done with the Drupal logo. It's a straight forward website design and that's pretty much what the doctor ordered for something like this. Good looking...
10k.aneventapart.com
Beautifully simple website. From top to bottom this site has all the components that I enjoy. It has nice illustrations (even down to the submission form, with the browser icons.) It's Responsive and also has a subtle parallax effect applied to the header and the...
moretech.it
Submitted by: Moreno @_moretech Simple design given impact by adding some animation. I love how the large circles drop and bounce slightly on page load. Then the timing of the scroll/transition between sections is very good. It "feels" nice as you use it. It leaves me...
