Web Design Inspiration Curated
goTenna
We have a saying around here for when we like some new tech gizmo - "Me likey - me want one" - no really... we actually say that... I know... but me likey goTenna - me want one. But that's not important now. goTenna's website has great use of video background,...
Ben Baker
Good portfolio site from Ben Baker. Two things to really note - like how the icons fly in when you hover over the navigation. And the project detail pages have some off-screen navigation in the left top corner to quickly change out which project you're viewing. Smart...
Future Bristol Low Carbon 2050
Great way to start your Tuesday - this interactive graphic website on the the future potential of Bristol (UK), that allows users to see the potential scenarios the city may go towards, and vote on the ideas, with real-time feedback on what others have voted on too....
Letters, Inc.
At first I didn't know what to say about this site. What finally comes to mind is "Thank you" - thank you for an awesome site that doesn't look like every other site and every other agency site. Thank you for having a fun site that really shows some of the awesome...
Nichols College
College sites are hard, mainly because of all the content from all the different areas that content and data comes from. Nichols College does a good job unifying all of it into a modern, responsive design - that probably looks even better on a tablet view - meaning...
Cosmic
Great site at any screen size. Like their infographic on their work process too. Looks like a cool place to work - 2 minutes from the ocean, 10 from the mountains.
Twelve South
This was a fully responsive redesign of the Twelve South eCommerce website. Twelve South creates beautifully designed accessories exclusively for Apple computers. We love their BookBook for iPhones and iPads - and the site reflects the beautiful design of their...
Dan Edwards
I love the big screenshots, they keep going forever. Pretty cool vibe color wise too, nice stuff. Simple and effective. Submitted by: Dan Edwards @de Role: Designer & Developer I've not touched code in years, so to try something new I set myself the challenge of...
Mathieu Bocher
I dig the feel of this site, the two big calls to action "more about me" and "check out my work" that's pretty much what the site is for and he goes for it in an interesting way with those CTA's. Other little cool details make the site shine too. Good work. Submitted...
airbnb
New airbnb website update. Plenty to gawk at, most noticeable is the new branding. Go consume folks!
Keep Your Diet Real
I like the colors and soft visual feel to the elements on the site. Nice responsive changes as you scale down the page width too. Submitted by: Matt Rossi @matthewjross Role: Designer
Martin Fletcher
Pretty cool side bar nav design. I also really dig the way the main page is put together with the lines/graph paper feel and the trail connecting things. It's intriguing enough to make me scroll it and check it all out.
Bright Umbrella
It's just simply a well done site. These two have been kicking ass for a long time IMHO and it's really nice to see them rebrand and launch this company and website like they have. There is plenty to admire about the site design, plenty of detail work, so defineately...
pleisty
I love narrative when it's used in a site design, this one for pleisty is very well done. It's intriguing and cool looking at the same time. Pretty badass actually.
Taasky
Really nifty looking design. I like the soft but crisp look to the site, beautiful work. The very bottom/footer of the site is the bestest part though. I can drop them check marks like a pro.
Mod Notebooks
Aside from the fact that I JUST WANT ONE OF THESE, the site is beautiful. I love the flow of the home page as I scroll and the cart process for ordering is simple and smartly put together. Love the notebook and love the site guys!
Res.im
There are a lot of familiar patterns at work on the Res.im site, but they are just simply done well. Then there are some new things that i've not seen done before, like the timeline of projects with the team profile pics - that's just smartly done. I also love the...
Aprijic web design
Nifty little design details and movement on this site. I like the super bold coloring and the photography elements.
Upper Cut
Really like the animated scrolling on the home page - want that Field Notes book for my personal collection. Great use of fonts, both on the page, and in the modals (which make the modals actually work well - like a placard o' info). And someone needs to get a hold...
Nick Reese
Nicely focused well branded site for Nick Reese here. I like how the main image stays centered when the screen size is reduced. Very highly produced site here, quite good.
