Web Design Inspiration Curated
Ollestudio
Pretty unique take on an agency website look. It feels very experimental in it's approach to relaying content. I love that the most about it. Good effort there to keep it fresh and approachable at the same time. It's also a nice visual design too. From the Designer:...
Pantaloon Press
Unique in that it's really just a single page layout for this business. You don't see that too often. It's beautifully simple too, which is always going to win in my book. Pantaloon Press publishes email newsletters distinguished by original writing, elegant design,...
Howdy This
Man, I just love the site for Howdy This, so clever. I love the layout and the limited color palette. The typography is solid from top to bottom. Beautifully done and quite unique looking to me. From the Designer: We tried to enhance every section with some small...
Studio.Zeldman
Pretty cool. Zeldman is hitting the agency world again it looks like. So what do you do when you're Zeldman and you need to inform people of the things you've done. Just put it up there for everyone to remind them. Quite the resume man. Love this. Now, get to work...
Matt Welch
I love this portfolio site for Matt Welch. "Most complex problems come with an NDA", amen brother. I love that he just puts that up front for you to know. It's the truth, if you do any sort of high-level work your public portfolio is going to be limited. He puts in...
Bruk
Real simple design for Bruk but it also has some really nifty UI details. The left vs. right look is pretty cool and the "X" that stays visible when you check out some of the work is pretty clever too.
SimpleBits
I'm not entirely sure how old or new this version of SimpleBits is. But it's simply beautiful. Simple, straight forward and editorial based design. The perfect blog look. Mmmm hmmmm.
Full Story
Really nice product based website. Honestly it's really straight forward and in many ways set's the "standard" for how one could approach a product site design. Plenty of straight up product details and minimal but well done interactions.
Mossio
Really cool website that shows what this company does. The atmospheric surreal backtrack makes it feel like coming to this website is an experience along with the homepage animatic.
Persona
Pretty cool site design for Persona. I dig the image treatment and the simple approach. The "backstage" fly-out nav is cool and a neat way to subtly get you into some more depth with the content produced behind the sites in the network.
Olderbrother
Based in Portland and LA, Olderbrother is focused on creating gender-neutral luxury clothing items from locally crafted materials and eco-conscious fabrics and dyes. Olderbrother is a playful relief from the stark-seriousness of contemporary society. Their products...
Google Fonts
The Google Fonts site has needed a facelift for a while now. Well, it got one. Pretty damn slick too. You can type directly on top of the sample text and sorting is quite easy. Beautiful website let alone the type sampling work done. Solid.
Robin Bierens
Nice three.js implementation and clean design for Robin Bierens' portfolio site. I dig the little details and simple type based approach. Just enough movement/stuff to keep you engaged and just enough simple to make it design review worthy.
Kultar Singh Kalsi
Very slick yet simple layout. I really love the grid-ness of the design. There is also just enough slight movement as you scroll or interact to make it a bit memorable too. Bright colors and strong headlines help a lot too.
BADASS
I love the strong graphic work, the illustrations the logo all have a good spirit to them. That's enough most of the time to get clients into what you're doing. Love this stuff.
Seedlip
This is just a beautiful website. I love the muted colors except for the product shots. The image treatments and the smaller screen design changes are well done. Lovely website and it's a nice classic look.
Charlie Rose
I'm digging the Charlie Rose website. There is a lot of pretty solid UX to study here. From the grid layout and display of episodes to the search form. Tip top design here.
An Interesting Day
Pretty crazy illustrations are the core of this website's awesomeness. Now, normally, we wouldn't post a splash or coming soon page but this one is just so weird and exciting looking. Lurve this kind of thing.
Flock Knitwear
Really cool grid work here. I love the blocky line based layout a lot on this site for Flock Knitwear. The colors some of the subtle off-set-ness. Beautifully done.
NYC Pride
Really unique website experience here for the NYC Pride site. I really really love how it's a wholly different experience for desktop vs. mobile. Literally different styles of interaction. I dig the monochromatic color palette a great deal too. The overlay nav design...
