Web Design Inspiration Curated
parkbud.com
This is one of the most superbly done iPhone app websites I think i've seen in a while. I love the rich detail in all the graphic work, and the scrolling single page approach fits well for this site and provides a nice experience with the fixed header. Super nice...
dshigdon.com
Superb single page site. The snake illustration is top-notch lovely and the dark grey with lighter grey text and details makes it all feel really high end. Nice type choices too. Love it!
sisumedia.com
Outwardly a simple design, but make your way through it and you'll find a host of nice details. I love the background image, it subtlety helps guide your eye around from the header into the content of the page(s). I also like how the portfolio grid stays on each page....
bckdesign.dk
Submitted by Bjarke Clauson. Role: Designer & Developer. I like the laid back yet detailed design work to this website. It's a large single page design with some really nifty info-graphic style sections but it feels really welcoming and down to earth to me. I can't...
preparetoactivate.com
Sign. Me. Up. This is a super fun looking site for an upcoming outdoor adventure for web designers and developers. There’s a lot packed in this little site to comment on, so in no particular order: The color scheme rocks my Merrell’s off. The main typeface is fun,...
contentcube.dk
Submitted by Jakob Claumarch Corporate site for Danish web agency Contentcube Very interesting design for Contentcube. Taking their website and message and making it into a large infographic is a pretty strong idea. It keeps it super fun and informal yet almost...
glueisobar.com
Glue Isobar is a creative agency in London. The site does a good job of reeling you in. The intro copy is short and lets you know they have 150 people, making it obvious this isn't just some little studio. The mosaic layout makes it easy to scroll down and each box is...
mojo-themes.com
Site by: Brian Hoff @behoff Role: Designer You can read more about my process here and here : Love the mojo-themes redesign, it's been out a few weeks but I've just gotten to it. Brian Hoff has done a great job on this one. There is a TON of info and stuff to pull...

zaarly.com
You can’t look at this site without getting lost in the fabulous illustrations by Cory Godbey. On it’s own, Zaarly is a pretty awesome concept but the design and details found on this site give it a fun, personal feel and really carry it home. As an added bonus, check...
quoteroller.com
I love the simplicity of this layout and yet there's a level of complexity here that's perfect. The call to action is super obvious and classic looking. I think my favorite part is the newsletter signup, the way it's designed, with the letter graphic behind it is just...
ap-o.com
Very interesting design. I like how it's basically a slideshow presentation. The experience is nifty, especially when the backgrounds on the slides change so drastically. The one con to this type of design is that it takes a lot to get at any depth on the site, but it...
wpzoom.com
Clean and clear design always wins out. wpzoom.com is a nicely executed design, with a clear call to action and hierarchy. The site is just chock full of content and it doesn't feel overwhelming. I like the three sample images on the home page and how you can make one...

atlason.com
Beautiful design on the surface, I always enjoy experimental layouts & UX like this. The + & - symbols to open and close the blocks is fun. I think you can classify this site as a responsive width design - at least it responds visually to browser screen widths....
jupiterwoodsman.com
Jupiter Woodsman is a small design studio in Portland. I really like what they had to say about themselves in their background section Since our methodology for design requires a lot of research and discovery, we tried to make the site an open book. We explain details...

wesc.com/footwear
This site/page is absolutely brilliantly done. I love the storytelling aspect to it as you scroll and the shaky images are well placed and worked into it. This is so much fun, reminds me why I love this stuff so much when I find something like this!

Programming Note
If you've noticed a lack of posts for the last few days, fear not. We've been working hard to roll out a new design and should be launching real shortly. The new design will cleaner and simpler and we hope you will have some good stuff to say about it.
Devolution or Evolution?
It seems almost every day, I come across a new XHTML coding service, a company that will take your design and turn around XHTML/CSS in some short amount of time. There must be a burgeoning need for these, considering how many there are. Smashing Magazine recently did...

The web design world, if you pay attention to many of the css and webdesign gallery sites, can seem a bit insular. Seemingly every few months, a new design accouterment pops up out of nowhere and is seemingly on every site. A past example of this is what I'll call the...
