Web Design Inspiration Curated

Your Jolly Dog

There's something about this website that I like. The image treatment and the tabbed menu seem to work for this design. The events pull out is a good idea as well.

Mark Forrester

There's something about this blog design that I really like, perhaps it's the illustration or simply the way Mark projects himself with his writing.  Sometimes there's more to website than the visual presentation, which in this example is pretty darn good, but you...

Simply Invoices

I really like the green they chose, shows some guts and flair for the inventive.  Overall this design is clean cut and straight-forward with is also really like.  This product idea is a good one and the design supports that.  Well done.

Burnett Dairy Cooperative

I love the look of this site, it's perfect for the subject matter. The textures and colors evoke the farm, nature and history of this dairy farm. The store is well designed and integrated and easy to use. I just might have to order a box of sausage...

Rememble

I'll be honest, I haven't signed up for this, so I can't vouch for the application itself. But the site is very fresh. It's colorful, well-written and to the point. The timeline aspect looks interesting, I wish there was a larger screenshot to give me a better idea of...

Joystik

This site is the personal portfolio of Paul Seys. It's a little light on the content and work output, but he's really done a great job on his site. I love the darkness and the subtle textures that are going on. The bright greens and blues really pop out and add...

Judo Club

This one was in the gallery showcases earlier on, but it was just submitted to us and I have to admit I really dig this layout.  Very user friendly and the pattern used in the header along with the color palette make this enjoyable to look at.  I want to learn Judo...

mpress

I love the color combinations and the way this site is so simply organized is a testament to how simple can be elegant.

Frojd

Frojd has created a really slick one page portfolio site. There's much more content on this page than first meets the eye. It's very clean, simple and effective.

2008 Sundance Film Festival

Sundance has always generated well designed websites, but lately they seem to have gone to a more flash based approach, which, frankly, I'm not a big fan of. The Sundance Institute site takes forever to load. And for what, I'm not sure. But this film festival site is...

Reason

I'm really not sure if this is a small company or just one guy, Jaco Joubert. Everything is "we" this and "we" that, but then at the top it says "The design studio of Jaco Joubert." So maybe this will be sort of a backhanded compliment by saying it doesn't come off as...

Edgewater Cottage Community

I like sites that bring tangible items onto the screen. I like the idea that someone took an item, and scanned it or photographed and turned it into an element for their design. This site has that, with the photo corner edges and the stamp overlay, and it helps...

Frieze

Frieze is "Europe’s leading magazine of contemporary art and culture". The site is clean and simple with great layout able to present a lot of content on the home page without being overwhelming. I like that it's basically all black and white, which lets the color...

TEN – Teaching Excellence Network

I mentioned the other day in the post about the new Weightshift design that they do great work. Well, here's an example of it. What I like about this site is that it's devoid of fluff. It's a community site for teachers, and the blog and messageboard are right up...

Denver Seminary

This is just a beautiful site. Ekklesia 360 has done an excellent job. Managing to put together such a deep site while keeping it cohesive is an impressive feat. It's not lacking in attention to detail and the colors, type choices, and photography are excellent...

danielpospisil.cz

I really like the modularity in the look of this website. The colors play well together and are different enough to catch my eye. Good use of the page-fold in the design too.

Weightshift

Weightshift is a small studio headed up by Naz Hamid, and they do great work. Just check out their portfolio. This is his recently launched site, seemingly a year or more in development. That's what it's like sometimes when you try to do your own work. It looks great...

Emptees

This is another great site from the guys at Big Cartel. They really do great work. Clean, simple, and effective.

Pixelmator

Pixelmator is a new image editor for Mac OS X, it looks really cool and cheap, maybe a good alternative to photoshop. The site is really slick, and plays off the Apple style a bit, but it works really well.
