Web Design Inspiration Curated

Briefing

Black and White and Re(a)d All Over.... Ok, I looked in the CSS, and there is no #ff0000, but I liked the joke. Love the simplicity of Briefi.ng - both in the design, and the stories - great for someone like me with ADD.

3 Horizon Interactive

Some pretty crazy interactions going on here. I dig it though. The colors and type that are paired together give it a rather open yet heavy feeling. I'm a fan of the navigation design too, see, what's the harm in just showing the nav at all times?

88and90lex.com

Nice single page scrolling design for 8and90lex.com. It's a smooth experience overall, you can just scroll or navigate by the header section too. The illustrations hit at the right times and look great.

Homer Hudson

Never too early in the morning to think about ice cream... mmmm... ice cream... Homer Hudson's site out of Oz is bright and different. Looks like one page with a few modals - compact, with all emphasis on the product. It's a little bit of UX risk with the scroll left...

Void By Hi-Res

I didn't even attempt to see what was under the hood on this site - didn't care - was having too much fun with it. Void was done by Hi-Res out of London. Not sure why they did it - but who cares - pretty darn awesome - happy Friday!

Torpedov

Pretty solid graphics on the home page, I dig that left or right choice. I also like how he's used the hamburger menu thing in the logo look as well. It helps tie it together for people. Nice use of slight animations in the case study imagery as well. From the...

Adam Crigger

Well, damn. Adam Criggger - well done. He's made his portfolio / resume site look unique, subtle and clean. And the fact that he has a seemingly out of place Biggie Smalls quote and video hanging out on the site, with the star field background floating through......

EPL – Most Valuable Kits

Love this way ESPN has made this interactive infographic for the English Premier League's "most valuable kits" this year. Great work on the kit illustrations and the overlay work to see home and away kits. Like the marketing aspect of it too - links to Dick's Sports...

Wove

Well - we're back to a "me want" product. I live on my iPhone and FitBit - something tells me Wove may be a pretty cool symbiosis of the two. The site is minimal, but has a lot going on. Starts with a cool intro - that goes into a "static" page with minor animations...

Grab House

Pretty utilitarian design for Grab House, but somehow they've made it look appealing visually. I dig the search box area and then as you scroll down there are timed info blocks that load pretty smoothly.

Fantasy

Newly updated (not sure how long) design for Fantasy Interactive. It's amazing to me to see this design, i've followed Fantasy for the entire time they've been around. You can almost track the times in design from their websites over the years. this iteration is a...

magicrm

Mostly posting this for the navigation pattern. I like how when you simply mouse over the hamburger icon it loads a small set of icons for the nav. Yes, we can probably pick that apart, but i've never seen that before. I like it as a design pattern as a way to combat...

UAC Studios

Beautifully simple design for UAC Studios. I really like the large imagery used for the project sections. I also like how it's pretty much all about the work, that's just about all I ever care about when I check out another company's website that do what I do. 🙂

Lauren Wickware

I love, love, love the way the scrolling works on this website. It's smooth and very unique to experience. Very memorable experience here.

Book & Sons

Pretty tidy layout for Book & Sons. I dig the large imagery and the simple nature of the grid at work here. I'm not too happy with the big background images and the white text overlaid on them, sometimes the copy is impossible to read. Fixing that up would leave this...

Eginstill

Really cool way to start up a page of content. That large image that loads down to a smaller version and then the grid layout around it is pretty hot. Really digging this site right now.

TEA

Ahhh, that Swedish design. I love it so much. The crisp photography and the thin lines on the typography layered on top of a sharp grid. Wonderful stuff.

Day of the Dead

Beautifully illustrated website for the Day of the Dead festival. I love the bold colors and stuff. My favorite is the "skull menu" that you get on mobile screen widths. Skulls beat Hamburgers every time.
