Web Design Inspiration Curated

Brooklyn Bridge Park

The new Brooklyn Bridge Park site, done by Kettle NYC, is kind of a monumental achievement, like the bridge and park themselves. There is a lot going on here, from the infinite scroll card design on the home page, to the three - four different forms of navigation...

Nucleo

We hadn't reviewed an app product site for a while, and at first I wasn't sure to just keep this one as a resource for Radar, but I liked the basic clean look of Nucleo's site. With suped-up intros and pre-loaders becoming a new trend, I like the fact that this site...

We Make Awesome Sh

This is a clever site from We Make Awesome Sh, out of the UK. Besides the duck and beach ball css-transitions, and transparent svg in a div, with the class of "scribble" that is set to be a fixed overlay over the entire page (below) .. there is a "Don't like swearing...

Michi Ramen

The thought of going to Austin for ramen? Well, based on the design of the Michi Ramen site by Sputnik Creative.. yeah sure. Love the simple look and feel of this site, with cool textures that give some depth to this site. Remember, restaurant sites are usually...

Simplify, Well

"If you want to be heard through the din, try being clearer, not louder." We don't normally showcase too many blogs anymore - and never do that for a blog post - except this one. From Sparks Studio in London, Michael Gough has a cool blog post that could be a stand...

Propeller Communications

Like how Propeller Communications out of London uses the off-screen nav hamburger - but with a caveat - they start the site with with the hamburger open in vertical nav, that you can decide to close to gain screen real estate. From the Designer: Propeller is a full...

Hinge Ltd

Cool and quick one-pager, full-width site from Hinge out of the UK. Like the slightly off-kilter script lettering, along with the regular copy - accented with the same angular thing going on with the color sections. From the Designer: We're a new digital agency, less...

Grid & Flow

Cool site from Grid & Flow out of Orlando - like the off-screen / vertical navigation on the left side - different than most. Also like this trend again of Instagram feeds that make up a section of the site - makes for a better look and feel with those filters....

Jens Windolf

Well - I like clean and simple - and not too many are going to be more clean and simple than Jens Windolf's portfolio site out of Hamburg. I love the text treatment here, and the fact that you can change over to a portfolio view that is image based too. And like how...

The Pixelage

Clean and quick agency site out of Singapore from The Pixelage. Like the video background and the non-scrolling that basically gives you an A or B option to find out about the company, or look at their work. I think too often, we beg people to contact us, without...

JLern Design

Really dig this portfolio site from Justin Lerner out of Philadelphia. It's fairly unassuming at first, where everything is grey and looks like wireframes - but on hover and then on click, with cool transitions, open up into strong, flat design. It's a nice concept...

ESPN

In the US today it is the official Opening Day of baseball, and tonight the championship game of men's college basketball - so appropriately we look at the 20th Anniversary redesign of a site that is now ubiquitous with sports in the US: ESPN.go.com With as many or...

Five Points Columbia SC

We see so many local websites that are just, well, not good. Our buddy Joe Lemmons @joslemmons just finished this site for the Five Points Association in Columbia, SC - and friends aside, we were pretty wowed with the work. So we decided to go a little more in-depth...

Poppy

Poppy, from Quirky out of New York, caught my eye because once upon a time I was COO of a start up that tried to do some of the same things in the pet industry before we had a lot of technology that is ingrained into our daily lives today... Besides some awesome...

Allen Yu

I've read a lot of praise and criticism for this portfolio site by Allen Yu out of New York. This is one of those times where I'm going to let the work speak for itself, with the overtone of: art is open to interpretation. What's your interpretation? Tweet us:...

Storyland Studios

So John that works with us here at Unmatchedstyle sent me this yesterday - Storyland Studios near LA - made by Sputnik Studios in Austin. John's quote on it was: "the content is of course what excites me the most but the site is well made I think (How could you go...

Isaac Paavola

To say Isaac Paavola has moxie is kind of an understatement based on his portfolio here. It's intro is unexpected, and then there is good fading of sections as you scroll down. The movement of the portfolio banner is a sweet idea, and like how it's used again as...

Website Store

I admit, at first I was taken aback on the Website Store UK website out of the UK.. (wait, what did I write there?) - mainly because of the name and the image of the iPhone and iMac site mock ups in front of the full width and height images. Pressing on, found the...

Ellen Tracy

High fashion is followed by slick design in this site for Ellen Tracy, done by The Charles NYC. I already like the work that The Charles does (like the Bloomberg Media site we reviewed a little while back) - so when they submitted this site, I was looking forward to...

Xavier Roggen

Xavier Roggen's portfolio site out of Brussels is minimal, but there are some cool takeaways from it (we try to get those in each site we look at). I like the full width image slider background and the filtered images he uses. Sometimes style is a matter of content...
