Damn, I love websites that just embrace their purpose and put it front and center to the core of what it's all about. This website is a portfolio, so make that the home page. Brilliant! I also love the "A bit more about me..." part of the about page, one of the more...
Talk about a narrative driven website. This one is very nicely crafted with the animated illustrations and the timeline that slides in from the left and right telling the story of the wedding party. Lovely lovely website here.
It's a pretty standard and simple layout but accentuated by that nice leaf illustration. That illustration is the central focus of the design and makes you really start your visual journey around the page there in the center of the page almost.
What a richly packed layout we have here. It's simple and open yet very dense visually at the same time. That's very hard to achieve and Mobilla does it very well. I especially like the main hero image that's responsive and static almost with the iPhone and hand that...
Super beautifully crafted website design. The colors, typography layout choices - it just sings! Just beautiful! I really love how the main nav slides up to be a fixed header from the home page on. Seamless and smart feeling.
Nicely done coming soon page, it's almost a full site really. The single page actually does it justice since it's so concise. I like the way the email signup stays readily visible as you scroll down - almost becoming more so because of the animation.
I like the clear blocky grid for this design. Right angles and squared off images, then the big oversized slideshow at the top. Pretty common layout formula but it's pretty groovy here to me. Pretty funny use of the animal heads throughout the site. Humor is funny.
I like the left to right changing layout. Very asymmetrical and open vibe. I also dig the mobile nav design, feels really app like. Clever stuff.
I LOVE the new Built By Buffalo design. So clean and sharp. The hexagon shapes feel very new compared to other sites too. Slick responsive design solution that's just as clean and concise as other screen width versions of it. Beautiful! Ascii buffalo head FTW!
Submitted by: Zoltan Garami @garamiz Role: Designer I like the placement of the red behind the white text that's over the monochromatic image. I know it's simple and been done before but it's nicely done here and I just like it. The logo is nicely placed in the center...
I love subtle design and this site is a perfect example of that. The left right arrows that match up with the keypad, then the simple placement of interactions/controls. Like when you click on menu and the big X is over the content of the previous page/view. Love it....
Submitted by: Andrew Lohman @ajlohman Role: Designer & Developer A simple responsive personal site with some nice little details. Really brilliantly simple design. I love how the logo stays put as you scroll down the page, disappears behind the portfolio section then...
The new An Event Apart site had landed. It's a well done example of clean design and responsive/mobile-first implementation. I think we'd all except no less from the masters themselves. They've given us a nice writeup on the site re-launch on their new blog too. I...

I just love this site design. The minimal color palette and the simple yet deep approach to the layout. The single list of posts on the home page just sings to me for some reason. I think it's the balance the designer has struck vertically with the layout. I'm also a...
The Codex Magazine website is beautiful. I love the blocks of content on the home page, it's clear and concisely laid out and all so well balanced. It feels a little asymmetrical but completely balanced evenly. It's also a really nice mobile layout down to the iPhone...
Website by yaronschoen.com The Jonathan Levy site is simple clean and clutter free. I really dig the main photos and how they are carried through the pages of the site, they help sell the character and vibe of the man. I wonder if it was a special photo session just...
Brilliant layout for the Women & Tech website. It's a gorgeous long form narrative based content site with a responsive wrapper. I love it. It's also a really great service for the community at large.
We don't normally post a lot of coming soon pages or signup form pages like this. However, the Jukely interactions are well done and actually spur on the desire to use the signup form. It's fun and inviting and creates a nice little moment of delight all with it's...
Really nice clean minimal(ish) web design conference website. I like the subtle changes that happen as you scale down the site to smaller screen widths. It's really straight forward and that makes it beautiful to me.
Submitted by: Shane Prendergast @webknit Role: Designer & Developer I kind of like this take on having a splash page. The top portion with the animation basically works as a splash page, then you scroll down to immediately see the portfolio - thus negating having a...
Maybe it's the colors or the photos that are used in the main slideshow but this design just feels "hand-made" (like, I know it was made by someone, but i'm talking about that hand-made aesthetic). It's really well done, with the attention paid to the imagery in the...
Submitted by: Melquiades Vazquez @melvc Role: Developer Basically in my portfolio everything is based on a 50px by 50px square, you will know what I mean as soon as you see it. I've used html5, responsive design and jQuery animations. I really dig going with a theme...
Submitted by: Christophe dumont @hooraylabs Role: Designer & Developer Really simple page here. Honestly there's not much, but boy what's here is fun and smart. I love the city scape with the airplane animation.
We don't post too many theme designs here on UMS. I happen to like this one on it's design merits alone. The circle design elements work really well to me once you get past the main hero image/slider. I can take or leave the main navigation design but it's all well...

Submitted by: Tony Zipparro @LLTGroup Role: Designer I do like the bold graphic look of this design. The strong leaning illustration work and type works well together. They also bring it pretty well with copy and packaging themselves well. The message might be a bit...
Submitted by: Balraj Chana @circularchaos Role: Designer I like how all the links and sections are presented in this design. The icons and mouse overs are nice. I also really dig the experience section towards the bottom of the page.
Jason is crazy. But Jason has a cool website. I like the colors most of all they're very inviting and mixed with the imagery it works really well. Good choice on keeping it a simple one pager too. Nice!
