Web Design Inspiration Curated
dixonsapples.com
Really nice tactile feel to this design. Mainly the details make this site so nice, the wood background selling the apple crate feel and the typography and lines make me think of hand made labels. All very earthy feeling colors and textures without being too early - a...
archfirm.com
The navigation of this site was really enjoyable for me - although I'm questioning how wide it made the site in the end. The narrow content area in the center really works because it's easy to scan through and the portfolio is always right there on the left for...
grindspaces.com
Grind seems like a very cool co-work space in NYC. Make sure to check out the video at the 'what' link, it's beautifully done. And I have to say, $500 doesn't really seem like a bad deal for that area, and for such a modern, hip space. I'm assuming the coffee is free,...
swissside.com
Really simple and clear bike tire website. I like it when you have such great photography that you can basically just throw that out there up front and let it do all the talking, like in this design. I also like the three block areas with the three different types of...
The Manual
Overall the design of this simple website isn't going to blow your mind. But I love how it uses simple photos of the book as both the background and main imagery at the same time. Sometimes it's the simple things that just work so dang well.
gobloomhealth.com
This is definitely not what I think of when I think about insurance benefits sites. It's modern and refreshing - it's even responsive! The doodle illustrations are friendly and have a fun contrast against the more realistic textures of the background. The content is...
tastingtable.com
I like how like 80% of the site is static and the only thing that scrolls is that sidebar. I think some of the type is all over the place, it could stand to have a little more simplicity style wise IMHO, but overall it's really workable and visually interesting to...
thefashionsketchpad.com
Submitted by: Aaron Payne @creativepayne Role: Designer & Developer I think this site is really unique in a few ways. First I think it's great that it's taking some cues from the fashion world with edgy, overlapping diagonal lines, bright colors and patterns. The...
b3studios.co.uk
Submitted by: Sam Tiffin Role: Designer & Developer Our new website, coded in HTML5 with CSS3 animations, background image sprites and fancy webfonts (courtesty of Google Webfonts API). Really nice super clean, highly detailed feeling single page design. This site...
ren.ai
I'm late getting this design up in the gallery - wedding site by/for a super great web designer Bryan Veloso (@bryanveloso) of avalonstar.com. Look up his stuff, he's great. This wedding site is really great, I love the big picture (like in a real frame) in the top...
kickoffapp.com
Super clean product website design. It follows the Apple style of layout pretty good, but still has enough of it's own life. I particularly love the main slideshow, the way it zooms in and out just responds really great to me. Overall this design is pretty "high-end"...
ianjamescox.com
Submitted by: Ian Cox @ianjamescox Role: Designer & Developer I was very happy to be featured on Unmatched Style over 2 years ago. I've recently done a long overdue re-design of my site and I would love to be featured on your site once again....
Carnivale du Vin 2011

joshuasortino.com
Submitted by: Joshua Sortino @joshuasortino Role: Designer & Developer Josh has a serious passion for progressive, usable, responsive design. His site is a demonstration of the flexibility, accessibility, and possibilities of HTML5 and CSS3. Really nice simple design,...
forefathersgroup.com
This is really a beautifully designed and executed website. From it's responsive approach to the over-the-top almost illustration work I can't stop looking at it. It has just about everything, style & substance. My two most favorite parts are the slide down quote form...
clearfirestudios.com
clearfirestudios.com is a lovely site with great details. The structure is simple but the soft colors, subtle textures and three dimensional elements give the site a visual depth that is lacking in most projects. It has the feeling that you are looking into a...
nuevacocina.com
I like nuevacocina.com's bold use of color. The richness of their red is strong and emotive. The photography is great and is seamlessly integrated into the visual language of the design. I think that the liberal use of text images for buttons and such is unfortunate...
oca.org
Submitted by: JD Graffam @jdgraffam Role: Creative Director Ooh, responsive! And so pretty! John Mears, of Simple Focus, was the hands-on designer and developer. Church sites in the past are usually cited as being less than attractive. This one not only crushes that...
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...

Emerging Trend: Static footers & navs
We've been coming across more and more websites with a static footer or navigation lately. Some are done really well and look quite elegant. Takes me back to the days of frame-sets *cringe* but the effect is kind of interesting. Some of these use the effect very...
