Web Design Inspiration Curated

vuu.com.au

This is a great looking site, it's more dense than most sites I see. Dense in that the copy and graphics are tightly positioned together. I really like the dark & rich colors and the depth this site seems to have. I really like the stationary footer with the...

iamgarth.com

This is a basic, two-column blog layout with external links to the portfolio and contact info. Based on that description, you'd think it would look slapped together and lazy, and you'd be wrong. The combination of "twitter blue", khaki, and white works great as a...

substraktbristol.com

Pretty nifty portfolio website. It's all about the work and this site serves up just the right amount of info for you. I like the static sidebar on this site and the typography is really well done.

Simpleloop

Submitted by @ironicpete, Designer. Great looking single page portfolio layout. I love the whitespace/breathing room on this site, It really feels open and inviting yet minimal and professional still. Parts of it suffer from the "too small type" syndrome but overall...

yaili.com

I love the simple design style here, the whitespace and rhythm of the design is very nice. The thing that intrigues me the most is the way the bottom half of the site is treated with the draggable design elements. Then the odd time-line that takes up most of the...

windrocklodge.com

I love the collage feel to this design, the patterns and design details are really great. It's a very simple layout that looks more complex because of the visual layers on top. It's interesting to look at just because of that. There's also a great deal of detail work...

Duchy of Cornwall Nursery

Really visually rich and interesting looking website. I love the main center image treatment. The colors and the way in which the content has been organized, there feels like just tons of data on this site but it doesn't feel like it's hard to get to.

paravelinc.com

This is simply a great website, one that's a pleasure to click through. They've expertly mixed great illustration with nice clean grid based design. A design like this will hold up over time. Spend some time on this one and enjoy!

Singapore Int. Foundation

Submitted by Emil Purugganan, @emilgp. XHTML/CSS guy. Website revamp for Singapore International Foundation done by comwerks.com. I really like the four column layout in the top portion of this site design, it gives it a really unique feel. From there the site is...

Bureau347

Submitted by Frédéric della Faille, @fred_dela. Designer. Clean grid based HTML5/jQuery website. Really visually interesting site design, I love the typography. The interactions, specifically the portfolio pieces are not what you expect, I like the effect of making me...

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...

TwigKit

Submitted by Tyler Tate, @twigkit. Designer. TwigKit is an easy-to-use toolkit that enables any web designer to quickly build full-featured search applications that look and feel great. Fast simple visually appealing single site design. I love that logo too. While...

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.

Inspire Boranikolic

This site/page inspires in both it's layout and content. Gotta love that!

Amelia Earhart Book

Submitted by Jeremy Mansfield, @brandaiddesign. Creative Director. New website for New York Times best selling author Susan Wels, designed to showcase her new book on Amelia Earhart, "The Thrill of It". There's not a lot technically going on with this design that...

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...

Design Intellection

There is strong type hierarchy throughout, a grid-based design and clean, crisp typography. The underlying markup structure is HTML 5 and a lot of CSS3 is used throughout. I love the way this site looks, the clean white style and the superb typography, it's everything...
