Web Design Inspiration Curated

Version-X Design

This is a re-design of our website moving from an all-Flash format to a ExpressionEngine driven site. The focus was on making a clean, highly usable site. Really nice bold typography to go along with a clean minimal feeling website. I really like the details in things...

borisforconi.net

Nice clean well organized layout, reminds me of the swiss school of design. This style of layout isn't anything new by far, I just happen to like this one and the twist it has with the dark brown background and light blue color used for highlighting certain elements...

RyanJohnson

Submitted by Ryan Johnson, @ryanjohnson_me. Designer & Developer. I'm still not sold on the "single page layout" style of websites, this one works pretty well though. The navigation follows you as you scroll down the page, I've seen that before and it seems like the...

Los Angeles Times

As a designer, I hope that if newspapers can be saved, that design will play a prominent role. Currently, many newspaper sites are dense, cluttered and so hard to read that it’s a wonder anybody goes to them (not to mention the cesspool that is the comments section of...

bromel

Submitted by Melvyn Phillips, @br0mel. Designer & Developer. I think I will let the users decide if they like it or not. for me it was a test to create something using minimal elements. I like the clean/minimal design here, the site has a nice visual rhythm to it. I...

DevBridge V3.0

Submitted by Aurimas Adomavicus, Designer & Developer. The pseudo-3d elements on this site are really great. It makes it fairly memorable and that's something every design should strive for to be considered great. The portfolio, or case studies, section is clever in...

blackestate.co.nz

This is a compelling single page "long scrolling" site design. I think the dark black background is kind of played out for a wine site, but I love the big bold typography and the way things feel offset yet still balanced. The very bottom of the page, the region,...

Ivan Akimov

Neat experimental design here. I don't like the click and drag to scroll to the right to see the content concept at all for client level production websites, but I love the fact that it's on his personal site and he's experimenting and pushing the limit on usability...

yeahsper.com

Submitted by Jesper Dahlqvist, Designer & Developer. This site has lots of little interactive tricks going on but it's also very minimal at the same time. You don't see many sites that heavy use of javascript effects but also be so quiet in the visual presentation. I...

markmcgall.com

I like the contrast between the top half and the footer on this site. Mount RushMark in the footer made me chuckle too. I also really like the way the portfolio section is laid out, really simple and intelligent.

My PRO

Submitted by Sanchit Thakur, @ILLUMINZ. Designer & Developer. Latest website by the team @ ILLUMINZ. This innovative new service from Almwal Studio based in Qatar allows any business person to have the most professional portrait photo by one of the most well-known...

christophermeeks.com

This is just a totally different looking site design than i'm used to seeing. I like the big bold graphics and text and the way the homepage simply shoves me along to the site's interior content.

ryanmcmaster.com

Submitted by Ryan McMaster, @thinkslice. Designer & Developer. I wanted to put together a portfolio site that heavily emphasized blogging and social media. The portfolio pieces and my blog posts happily co-exist and have ratings, social media and "tweet this" links. I...

billcenglish.com

Submitted by Bill English, @billcenglish. Designer. I'm really liking how the background image up near the header really looks like it's been considered as a design element and not just a background/pattern. The overall feel of this website is warm and friendly and...

agrojapra.net

This site has a great feeling to it. All of the elements here seem to be in sync: colors, textures and illustrations. Even the subpages are really well laid out and formatted down to the block quotes.

Red Velvet Art

Submitted by Kurt Theobald, @kurttheobald - CEO of Classy Llama Studios. Red Velvet Art was the beautiful joining of the illustrative genius of Elsie Flannigan and the web design and production expertise of Classy Llama Studios. The site is built on Magento, a new...

hashrocket.com

Submission & Review by Luke Williams @luke_redroot - www.red-root.com. I just came across this site,and I was really impressed with some of the neat touches. Looks fairly standard to begin with, but if you explore the design a bit you can see some really nice touches....

Netmongrel

I love the background imagery/texture on this site. It works so well with the background color and making this a dark background site that feels a bit different. The large header really stands out and make you focus on that particular copy/message first. I feel like...

TvTWeb

Dutch web developer with a very clear and tidy design, I love the simplicity. This is just a really clean, simple and minimal style website. I really liked the way this site looked when I first came across it. I especially like the big blue section on the homepage and...

Adam Amaral

Submitted by Adam Amaral, Designer & Developer. The design of this website definitely stays true to the artist's style. I love the hand drawn icons and type. The blog breaks from the format of the website which hurts it a little - and wouldn't be hard to fix. Also, it...
