Web Design Inspiration Curated

I like the stark graphic feel to this design, the strong lines and strong colors set a nice tone. I also really dig how the slideshow is used like a presentation. That's kind of a smart way to present your info like this. The website is generally really clean and...

Cool non-standard looking website design. I love the multi grid layout and also the asymmetrical look comes off great with the heavy images vs. the thinner columns of images/text. The red really just explodes out of the background and gives is some really great...

NIce blog design that takes on the traditional 2 column design and gives it depth and detail. I like the background texture and the small overlapping and 3D like details. It's subtle and doesn't hit you over the head but the design has a nice sense of craftsmanship....

desandro.com

The personal site of David DeSandro, it's wonderful. I love how the experience is like a playground for us web designers, you can spend a lot of time looking through things on his website and get caught up in many different types of subjects. The layout is...

This SXSW micro-site for Squarespace is exquisit. The design is sharp and enjoyable, the detail is superb as well. I love that skull icon - I really hope that thing was made into t-shirts, it'd be a shame if it wasn't. I love how it's a simple single page too,...

Really awesome effect with the single page scrolling design, the way the 'XRD' scrolls between the other versions of it to make that kind of vertical parallax effect/animation is pretty sweet. When you click a nav element or scroll the page for the first time, there's...

readability.com

Nice clean well designed website. I love the typography, it feels so classic to me, very much like A List Apart looks. That simplistic but super well done type layout goes such a long way to timelessness. It's great. Make sure you check out the sign up page too, I...

ambassadorsforlife.org

This is a really clean and well detailed website design. I also really dig the colors, the green and other earthy tones are chosen well to help communicate that 'world' vibe. The header confuses me visually a little bit, with the radial gradient overlaid with what...

locomotivecms.com

Cool train illustration and equally cool website for this open source CMS. It's cool to see an open source project like this with such good design. I really like how the design is very organic feeling with the navigation, it's really simple in it's presentation but...

bluecadet.com

First off super cool use of Mrs Eaves on a website. I love the little details on this site, it's such a great tone and mixes so well with the type choices. I really like the oversized feeling images on the home page too. It's almost slideshow overload with the home...

readyforzero.com

Nice open looking design. The colors chosen here work well together and support the idea of the product too I think. Also keeping the call to action links/buttons visually together in sharing the orange makes them stand out really loudly against the overly blue and...

sodafish.com

Super simple design but it's great IMHO. I love this guy's work and I like how the site has a little character but really gets out of the way of the work. It's a really simple execution technically too and it's a great example of just letting your work speak for you.

Cool concept for a website, Frank Chimero and Ben Barry answer questions. The split design is often hard to pull off but this one not only looks great but the concept is perfectly suited for it. There's some really nice little details at play here too. Overal it's a...

I like the personality in this design. The mix of the brown/tan cardboard look and the solid sans serif font goes together well. I also like how the site is embracing the scroll. Let it scroll man! Lovely site.

Crazy design that works. I really dig the Rube Goldberg looking looking illustration, it's so fun and makes you want to click around on it. The cloud background and overall design elements go really well together and make this site a very fun visual experience. It's...

blamestella.com

The service is a cool idea and the design of the site is cool looking too. The colors are definitely different looking, that alone is memorable to me since it's so non-standard feeling. Then the moustache/graph logo is pretty dang funny. Love it. Try the speed test...

iconbakery.com

Super nice clean design. I love the simple little icons used around the site and the nice large(ish) headers over all the sections. Really clean easy to follow grid lets your eye move around the copy really quickly. Nice colors and detail work.

truetea.cz

This site has a nice illustrative feel, it's very inviting visually. I like how the content is light and presented quickly and through other interesting interactive means like the quiz or other sub areas. It's not a straight up home page + sub pages site and that's a...

thelounge.fi

Submitted by: Esa Peltonen @esapeltonen Role: Designer and Illustrator The site is a good example of incorporating powerful illustrational elements in a web design. That is is! I love this design. It's very unique even though it's utilizing some really common/trendy...
