i-love-photos.co.uk

Really nice, playful website design. I really get a sense for this photographer's personality in the design of the website. The copy/text and particularly the visual tone of the site really set the stage to make me like this person. I think that's really interesting...

Good looking strong typographic based website design. I like the simple color palette and type choices. There's just enough simplicity and detail throughout this website to make it truly complete.

tnvacation.com/trails

This is really a remarkable website design. It certainly gets my award for most creative use of javascript! The concept here of scrolling from side to side and clicking on landmarks to get more info about Tennessee is brilliant. I always like just about everything the...

pixelbleed.net

pocketsmith.com

At first glance this site is just another "web app" looking site design, but once you spend a little time on it you find it's one of the better ones out there. There's some nice little UX interactions to keep you engaged, plenty of well laid out content and some smart...

atomiccartoons.com

This is largely a single page, scrolly type website layout, but it's propped up with some of the coolest illustration work i've seen in a while. The illustration is really the point here, since it's what they do, so it's natural that it's front and center. It's clever...

ianjamescox.com

Submitted by Ian James Cox, @ianjamescox, Designer & Developer. I tried to create something fresh that stood out from the crowd. Something to showcase my skills as a designer. This is a very well done, tightly worked up website. From top to bottom there's not a detail...

brianhoff.net

I love the simple typographical statement of this design. The large header type is beautiful and the layout and simple accent shapes make this design come together. It's a little odd that the portfolio goes to another site like it does, but I suppose it works.

johnnydoes.nl

Submitted by @johnny_does, Designer. With minimal design a very clear and strong portfolio showroom. No distracting elements and focus on the artwork. Besides that the user is served with multiple entrees of aspects of the artwork. The choice can be made on base of...
