Web Design Inspiration Curated

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...

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.

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...

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...

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 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...

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...

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...

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...

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

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.

Alex Buga's portfolio site is really cool. I like the woodgrain effects and the scrawly drawings. It's fun and humorous and very well executed. Normally, if someone referred to themselves as 'Webdesign Superstar', I would groan and close the tab, but with Alex's site,...
