Web Design Inspiration Curated

Brice Lechatellier

Really great "dark" style website, the background isn't just black, it's a really dark blue with a nice logo/icon behind it in a pattern. Simple yet complex. The blended header footer effect is superb in how it works into this design. The large images and scrolling...

Creative Increase

This will seem contradictory, but you be the judge of me: I think this site looks great, I like the crazy graphic, the 3D like levels worked in and the typography. I do think the main header graphic is out of control and it's odd how as you use the navigation the...

spread firefox

A sub page "section" of the main spreadfirefox.com site, this page is special. Chock full of good illustration and photos it really stands out as a landing page for something special like the 5 year birthday of Firefox.

Really nice textures and colors, this design comes off looking comforting and clean and has nice "hand made" visual feel to it. The photos used are also quite nice and bring you closer to the designer in a personal way. I like the fact that it's largely a portfolio...

Submitted by Naina Redhu,@naina. Designer & Developer. One page portfolio with unconventional use of CSS sprites. With the main focus of the display on the portfolio of logos. Good looking singe page portfolio site. I really dig the way the work is displayed, with the...

Really this is a straight forward type design, rather traditional and simple. What I like about it is that it's simple and expected yet has a really great background and texture to it. Great illustration goes a long way too (i'm such a sucker.) Cool looking...

I love this simple design. There's nothing fancy going on except there's a really nice illustration and the way it's fixed at the bottom makes you really remember this site. Makes me want to go to "Pie Happy Hour"!

Nice clean design with straightforward copy. I love the colors and the big paper plane imagery, the blurred background images are a nice touch too.

The presentation of the info is almost overwhelming. I'll give it one thing, it's one of the most unique layouts i've seen in a while. I do love the man navigation, part sideways part vertical, very crafty. I'm not wild about the fact that it scrolls sideways but it...

I love so much about this website, I almost shed a tear of joy. I really like how the layout and design of the site conveys that their "work is huge". Large text with very well done use of whitespace, and a beautiful dark color scheme accented by orange elements....

Great looking portfolio site. I love the split layout design here. Strong typography and interactions make this a really nice looking website.

Submitted by Alan Balcazar, @fsdsign. Designer & Developer. I think it is a consistent and experimental design that makes it less common. I like the open feeling of this javascript scrolling website design. As you go from section to section there are some nice...

I'll go ahead and say I'm a fan of web design that makes use of textures. This site showcases a very nice use of the torn paper look to produce a scrapbook effect. The color scheme works really well, the layout is easily navigable, and the flash elements serve as neat...

Pro Theme Design

Submitted by Darren Hoyt, @darrenhoyt. Designer & Developer. For this redesign, we wanted to avoid the shiny, heavily commercial appearance of most other online marketplaces. To make the product samples really stand out, we kept things muted. We also stuck to more...

Loving this single page designer website/webpage here. Love the colors and typography choices. Nice hierarchy in elements on the page too. I'd love to see more pages to this site.

magntize.com

I like this rather simple looking website design. The colors are interesting, with the dark gray and almost turquoise blue coloring. As much as I like the design though, I have no idea what this is. There's really no identifying copy on the site as to if it's a...

themountaincompany.co.uk

Pretty cool looking design. I love a lot of the design details on this site, the background stripes and the colors are great too. I'm a little confused over the hierarchy of the elements/sections as you scroll down the page, going from large to small to larger boxes...

thoughtbot.com

What a great looking site. I love the colors and illustration work. The level of detail in this site is excellent. Every page also looks clean and freshly designed, with great focus on what's important to the page you're on. From top to bottom this is one of the best...

bothdesignandmedia.com

Really interesting layout. I like the long page and the changing color spectrum background. I do think the fact that the page is long instead of being multiple pages can be problematic, shown by the need to have directions at the top of this page, i'm not 100% sure if...

gomedia.us

Good looking simple layout with cool background imagery and a static nav on the left. While this type of site layout has become sort of formulaic lately, this one does stand out to me visually. Maybe it's the colors or simple interactions, but it sticks.
