Web Design Inspiration Curated

Older Graphic Designer

This is a strange site. First of all, the name. After reading the intro I still had no clue, I thought that perhaps this person's name was 'Older', but it wasn't. After reading the about 'page', turns out it's a bit of a joke (I think), a title that Jack has bestowed...

macsbeer.com

This site has some really cool things going on, the background is very rich and I love the green colors paired with the red. The navigation is really flat and boring, that could really be cleaned up and given some love to possibly push this design into the great...

designhotels.com

I love the clean, black and white feel of this site and having the images be the only real color on the page. I like the visual rhythm in the layout and elements as you scroll down the page, I think the navigation in the top right is kind of small for it to be stacked...

jeffersoncountytn.gov

Sites for government entities or large bureaucratic organizations like this are hard to do because there is usually an enormous amount of content, mostly text, that somehow needs to be accessible to many audiences within one click. On top of that there are usually...

Squarefactor.com

Big single page, scrolling layout. I think the design of this site is really playful and hip feeling. I like a lot of the background imagery and typography here. Nice black and white work too. As with a lot of these single page scrolling sites I tend to find myself...

indielabs.com

Single page sites are all the rage right now right? At least it seems that way, I think Indie Labs sets the tone for the cool single page site though. I love this page/site. Great typography and detail throughout the page, leaves me wanting more.

hellobrute.com

I love portfolios of illustrators, they are always so much fun to discover. I love the logo, that it's created by his handwriting style and I love the simplicity of the site and how it really makes you focus on the work itself. The site is black and white and the work...

The Morning News

I'm not sure how new this design is, I feel like I've seen it for awhile since I occasionally end up on this site for some reason or another. That said, we haven't featured it before and it's just a beautiful site. The layout is very near perfect. There are three main...

virb

This site is so chock full of fine details and great layout I don't even know where to start. This could be an epic post, i'll keep it quick here (maybe we'll do a full app review one day...). Now I know it's not a new design, that's its been around for a while now,...

The Plant

I really like the way this site manages to come across as whimsical and playful but still gets across the point that they do serious work. The copy on the home page that says "the team that can turn your tech fantasies into reality" meshes well with the graphics,...

Albumdruck

So this site definitely doesn't break any new ground. It has a couple of the elements of recent design trends like Museo (I'll forgive anyone for using it, though, it's such a beautiful typeface) for titles and a 'ribbon' element. Still, this is a very well designed...

SixCentral

This is a really great website design. I love the detail work, it shows a real thoroughness to the design that makes me want to check out the app even more. I love the email signup form in the footer, details like that really make my day. Check out the video review...

orange-peel.ca

I like the clean grid based layout that gives this site a nice open feeling. I find that the sub pages particularly the work page, falls a little flat, i'd like to see more variation on the design here, just something that breaks the monotony of the rest of the site...

Solid Giant Studio

Submitted by Josh Starr, @joshuastarr Designer & Developer. I think this website is beautifully coded, has an amazing color pallet, and has a very sharp edge to it! I love the big pink monster illustration and the overall type treatment across the pages of this site,...

lesstimespent.com

I was really happy when I came across this web app site. It's different than the typical big screenshot with 3 featured content sections along the bottom formula sites. I really like the feel of this home page and the first screenshot with the arrow that tells you how...

Web Education Rocks

Submitted by Josiah Roe, @josiahq thisismedium.com. The WERock Summit & Tour is an important gathering of web education professionals to discuss the future of web education. We were glad to sponsor the design and development of the site at this defining moment in the...

tracy apps design

Submitted by Tracy Apps, @tapps Designer & Developer. A brand new site for a newly established company. the design purposely breaks some of the commonly seen web "rules" (ie: logo at the top. limited color palate) Really different looking design here. I don't think...

Villa Hope Adoption

Submitted by Paris Vega, @parisvega Designer & Developer. VILLA HOPE is dedicated to the principle that every child deserves the security of a loving and permanent family and every potential adoptive family deserves the opportunity for timely and comprehensive...

secondandpark.com

Single page layout for a web copywriter. It's really very clever looking, I love that monster illustration, it adds a ton of personal depth and character to the website. The website is extra clean and has some great typography. I love how the page scrolls vertically...

hanson.net

Submitted by Will Luper, Designer. How about that, yep, Hanson... I like the fact that they were able to keep it really simple, often band sites are just way too over the top. I really like the diagonal lines used on all the informational spaces/boxes. Though it's a...
