Web Design Inspiration Curated

I love the simple and minimal design to this blog. I don't normally go for a dark background site that has this much textual content on it, but everything here seems to be really set in a way that's not hard to read. There are also some subtle interactions here that...

I really dig the home page of this site, I love the big image and the way the slideshow is executed. Really nice minimal feel and the way the tool tip image folds out on top of the client logos is really nice. I do think however that some of the sub pages lack the...

That background is intense! I really enjoyed looking at that and the matching footer area. I like how they worked one of the logos into the header - I'm still looking for the other one... It's looks like they had a lot of fun making these graphics which are very...

I love the feel of this website, the illustrations/mascot is a nice idea here. Bringing a since of fun and joy to the layout of your web app site can really work in your favor. It can put users in a good frame of mind while working with your app too. Design wise I...

This site is simply beautiful. The texture, the type, the interactions, it's all there and it's great. For once here's a great restaurant/food website and the menu isn't a PDF or a flash page. Every section is integrated well into the overall design too.

Clever website and iPhone site/app concept. The iPhone site/app is by far superior to the main website in many ways. I do like the feel of it, it has a nice soft feel and the colors all mesh well together. It does indeed have some design cliches to show off and it's...

Awesome portfolio site, with some really good work to boot. I love the interactions and the winking view master logo is brilliant. The architecture of this site is wonderfully simple, when you have work this good to show off all you need to do is show it off...

I really like the unique color scheme on this site. The mint green and orange combo are relaxing and even appetizing - maybe because it kind of reminds me of sorbet. The orange works really well guiding my eyes through the content to certain areas of attention. It's...

I can't decide whether the austerity of this site is to it's detriment or not. I really like that it's a departure from the average busy and blinged out site for most hosting companies. On the other hand, there are some large areas of white-space that just seem a bit...

I like the almost 3D elements used across this site, the main type looks really crisp too. The portfolio is fairly extensive too, with the full screen website images, very nice. I also like that this site is multi page, I thought it was a single page jQuery website at...

The thing that makes this website design interesting is the iPhone style slider at the top that acts as a sort of funnel to ask a user whether they're part of a team or an individual. I think it's a pretty nifty little thing, except for the slight counterintuitive...

Love this blog design, love the subtle tones and interactions. From top to bottom the design of this site shows great attention to detail, from the interactions to the icons for each post type. I really love the home mouse over animation, check that out will ya. I...

I really like the implied simplicity in this home page design. The stark background and hard edges on all the elements leads you to see this as a very simple layout, however it isn't, the grid is complex enough to pull your eye down from the large slideshow images...

In less capable hands, using a bit of a 'cloud' motif to reference the more technical aspects of 'the cloud' could come off a bit ham-fisted, bit this site really nails it. I love the light feel of the white, rounded 'clouds'. The splashes of color sprinkled about by...

all-for-design.com

I really like this design, it's really monochromatic and looks like it would be soft to the touch somehow. The colors used for contrast are also chosen well. There are some nice little details in this design as well, the 'up' arrow that disappears when you are at the...

Although this isn't the first of its kind, a beer-reviewing site, I'm sure there is room for another well designed site like this. It has a pleasing mono-chromatic color palette with art that evokes beer labels without being too literal or garish. It's just the right...

There are some really good things happening in this site design. First I love the minimal aspect to the home page, presenting the blog posts in a slideshow/side scrolling setup like this works great. Second, I love the bright colors and illustrative quality to the...

Really cool landing page for Alex Swanson's main site. I really like the idea of doing a landing page for yourself from time to time and marketing that page. It would be much quicker than re-working your entire site and you can experiment a bit with it. I like a lot...

I really dig the background pattern and the gradient/light shift. The colors give it a nice cool feel too. This guy makes some nice themes too, including that “Desktop Chaos” theme from the Smashing Magazine giveaway. I'm not too hip on the small script type font used...

Found via @AIGASC Just In! The beta site of the Living Principles is live. Check it out & join the conversation beta.livingprinciples.org This is a pretty cool looking layout at first. I like the orange sidebar(s) in contrast with the normal white background that...
