Web Design Inspiration Curated
creative-jar.com
Submitted by: Alex Jaques @helixtorques Role: Designer A very clean, minimalistic approach to website design that let's the agency work do the talking. Often, when we get submissions, the submitter includes a small comment about the site. creative-jar.com came with...

I like the efficiency that this site communicates it's ideas. The animation and icons back up the message very succinctly and make it fun (with the animation) to look at. The site is responsive too which is a nice final detail IMHO.
newquest.fr
newquest.fr takes visual dynamics seriously. A strong modular grid with random focal points that change every time the browser window is resized, ensure (for the most part) that all the content is available all the time. The content location is completely randomized,...
insitestour.com
Really nice minimal website design. I really like how it comes off as largely a stream of consciousness. There's a good hierarchy of information, the way it's ordered and the depth in which it's given. Super fun site. It's responsive too which is cool because I can...
insidethebuggy.com
Submitted by: Cornelius Quiring @insidethebuggy Role: Designer & Developer insidethebuggy.com makes me wonder. Its experimental nature is in stark counterpoint to its content. insidethebuggy.com is about the Mennonites, both past and present, and has a strange...
bionichippo.com
bionichippo.com is a great example of minimalism and content hierarchy. A strong sense of contemporary modular grid-based design dominates the layout in pretty much every way but is softened through tight control of mellow colors (with nice accents) and rounded...

Damn nice website. I love the sharp crisp boxes and the interactions are very nicely done. The diagonal slide in is such a nice touch and unexpected. I also love the "more about" slide out from the header, very cool. My favorite sections are the people section and the...
wpcoder.com
An interesting service, i'm very curious about this... The website is quite nice and when you're selling a service like this it has to be top notch and really it is. If all I had to go on was the quality of the service's site when it came to choosing these guys I...

I like a lot of the pieces of this website - for those pieces alone it's made the gallery here. I like the big green diagonal in the background, that's dynamic and gives the site some good movement and makes it very visually interesting. The other subtle diagonals in...

I love the details and simplicity of this website. There's tons of fine detail work, like in the textures and typography. The content is fairly simple, basically blocks of content move from page to page and are the same on the home page - it's a nice experience...
burstcreative.com
Submitted by: Kevin Barr @burst_creative Role: Designer & Developer While not as sexy a many of the sites that come through unmatchedstyle, burstcreative.com pretty much does everything right. A strong call to action and familiar structure ensure that users will...

I really love the crisp grid layout and the hard yet soft edge to this design. Everything is a straight line/grid but it's softened by slight blur and coloring. The header/nav also stands out to be and is a neat UX design. I think the design here is serious and i'd...
ala.ch
Submitted by: René Keller @alalog Role: Designer & Developer ala.ch is a studio for illustration, screen design and interaction with big love for pixels, beziers and smart code, great passion for our work and curiosity about almost everything. ala.ch is a visual...

Love this almost minimal design. The textures, the illustration/icons, the colors they're all pulled together to be one simple harmonious page. There's just enough red to make certain features stand out just right. One thing is the small navigation items around the...
bigeyecreative.com
Cool details emerge after you move around the site. Like the fixed header that uses the seamless background texture to come off like a surprise. Also the hover states on the social media icons. I love how the graphics and samples are sort of patched in as you scroll...
dansormaz.com
Dansormaz.com is nicely designed site with an extremely clean minimalist style. The stark, almost european, design sensibility underpins a well structured modular grid that doesn't overemphasize vertical lines like many column grid sites do. In addition to a being an...

Really great conference website. The illustrations are too funny and it's very unique from most conference sites i've seen. It blows me away that it's a responsive design too. I love seeing stuff like this, it shows how much the people behind the conference love it...
uklizenodoma.cz
I'm usually off-put by this kind of design but I think buklizenodoma.cz is a really successful implementation of an interactive illustration and info-graphic. The visual separation between the illustrative elements and interactive elements is immediate and...
wecreative.com.br
NIce single page layout, I love the soft colors and texture. There's a lot packed into this one page too. I like how the work samples are displayed with the large image using a slideshow then smaller samples in a grid patter next to it. I think some of the body text...
thisisdare.com
I like the over simplification of this site. The navigation is hidden under a drop down type nav design, normally i'd be against that but somehow it flows well for the experience of this site. The way oversized images on the home page at first seemed sort of like a...

CSS: It’s not that hard.
This article isn’t meant to hash over the pro and cons of which one is better in the age-old (at least since 2001 or so) css vs. tables debate. I really don’t care which one you use. If you can get your work done quickly, make money, and sleep well at night, then that...
