Web Design Inspiration Curated

Jarred Bishop

This site baked my noodle. At first I just started scrolling down then I realized something weird was going on. The background was doing something weird but I couldn't quite put my finger on. It took a minute to really grasp what was going on but it's actually a...

mattbudd.co.uk

Submitted by Matthew Budd, @matthewbudd. Designer & Developer. Original dark and creepy design, stands out from the crowd and uses a lot of modern techniques to make the design look great but also make the content very accessible. Sufficiently creepy is what Gio and I...

indofolio.com

Pretty awesome looking portfolio site, I always love it when designers make their sites themselves the work that gets shown off. I mean when you don't have a ton of commercial work to put in your portfolio just kick some ass on your own site. This one is pretty great,...

brettterpstra.com

Good looking site with some nifty features. I like the sidebar that scrolls and sticks with you and the interactions on the main nav and work samples in the left sidebar are subtle and well done. I also like the 3D styling for the header shapes. Nice work.

Damn I love museo, I promise this isn't the only reason this site made it into the gallery. I do love the background's subtle texture and the colors are very nice. I love that particular green. The little javascript extras are really nice too, not too much either. One...

wildfireapp.com

I like the "large" feeling to all the elements on this site. There's also some nice detail work in the elements on the page(s) too. The thing that I love most about this page is the "sign up" button, that's just nice with the overlayed arrow/square shape. The thing...

I love the visual subtlety and the not-so-subtle content paired together like this. The site is simple beautiful with the textures, colors and imagery all working together. I especially like the over state on the logo, surprising and almost hidden. This site doesn't...

Pretty great typography and spacing of all the type and elements as you scroll down the site. I like the subtle interactions and fragile feeling the thin lines take on. Good dark background site design here.

Riot Industries

Found via @squaredeye loving the interactions at http://riotindustries.com/ Pretty clever interactions on this site, I like the feeling of sorting rather than loading new images or pages that it gives. Very beautiful colors and type to boot. Lots and lots of things to...

preserveproducts.com

Very clean and well organized product based website. At first glance it comes off rather boring but the typography is top-notch and you can see the underlying architecture is well done. Our favorite part is the product gallery pages, how the image of the product is...

nicewebtype.com

Really nice multi-column design. I like the nav that stays static as you scroll down the page and how the 2-3 columns to the right start to break the past posts up into smaller blocks. The colors are also nice, I love the blue with the reddish/brown background.

designerscouch.org

Pretty neat looking designer network. I like the overall dark design with the contrast of the light background, that's an interesting pair. The grid in this design is rigorously followed and makes for a really tight looking site. The red color used here isn't too...

billytamplin.com

Submitted by Billy Tamplin, @rejectedrobot. Designer & Developer. Beautiful colors, layout an type. I love the large images that go with each post on the home page and the main navigation in the header is simply gorgeous. Love every aspect of this website.

weightshift.com

I absolutely love the fragile beauty that is this design. Everything about it, he thin lines, soft textures and typography makes this site just feel human and warm. There's good difference between the pages and it's short and sweet when it comes to content, but yet...

mccormick.edu

I think this website has somewhat of a corporate undertone, with the use of blue and black and the clean tight lines/grid. It his quite well organized and really easy to get to what your seeking for. I quite like the design, it's a nice blend of using whitespace as...

solv-ux.com

Submitted by Aaron Irizarry, @aaroni268. Designer & Developer. I like the "large" feeling to the elements on this site. The muted background colors really make the green and orange sing when they are used. It has a lot of the come to be expected interactions but...
