It's not often you find a center aligned site and it's cool. This one looks fantastic. I'm loving the minimal aspects to this design and the black and purple is a nice combo in this case. The Alfred logo/icon of the hat is also great, and could really become very...
launchlist.net
I love launchlist, I love the idea and the execution is great. Aside from the idea being great - the design of this site is wonderful. It's a single page web app but there's a lot going on here. The fixed footer/bar, the animated clouds in the background and the the...

We've featured Trent's work on UMS before and he's also one of the guys behind Design Swap. Trent's blog has always been minimal and content focused and with this newest design update it's even more so. Each post will bring a slightly different look to Trent's blog....

I really love the overall look and feel of this design, the colors are perfect and the typography is very tight. I love the transition between the home page design and sub page design. I may be mistaken, I think I saw that this site was done as part of a 24 hour type...

They key here is completeness. This site is so deceptively simple it makes me keep digging into it. From the simple interactions in the main nav to the placement of colors throughout it's complete. "Finish" is one of those things that gives you a sense that something...

Love the textures and really love the colors. The red and the pattern in the, what I assume is a light of some kind, in the top right illustration under the logo is superb. I love the richness in this design, even though the rest of the colors and textures kind of...

I love the simple approach to the design of this site. The large drawings pulled into the design to give it some personal appeal. I love the logo too, a simple organization of type that implies a bit of chaos but placed on a website that's pretty well arranged...

I really dig this stark huge graphic style, it reminds me very much of Bauhaus type design. It's a balance, some of that design style makes things really clear and simple, yet because of the fact that it's all on the same level of hierarchy visually certain elements...

I love the smooth feel to this site, the graphic details are all very well done and have a great finished quality to them. I like the colors too, the yellow and grays are a great combo here. This site is a mixture of single page layout style and uses the light box...

I like the minimal direction in this site design, the simple type treatment and just relying on well cropped portfolio examples puts the right stuff forward when you look at the site for the first time. I like the fixed header, it's subtle gives some sophistication to...

The tagline reads “Simplified” and that is certainly what Daniel has done with his site. Simplified it. There’s nothing extravagant, the colours are subtle yet pleasing, and the layout, although not totally unique, is nicely laid out. If I did have to make a few...

Love the orange and black, but orange with the radial gradient in the background is nice. The overall design is simple in it's layout but there's a lot of detail put into each of the smaller graphical elements, like the "things I do really well" area and then again in...

Holy cow I love the french art nouveau design details in this site. It's really hard to do something like that and pull it off with a somewhat modern feel and this site does just that. This site is fairly simple in what it does and it's interactions, it's simply...

I really dig this website. It's both a cool idea and a great looking site design. You would expect the guy that runs WooThemes would have a great looking website no matter what the subject matter is and this one delivers. There are a lot of little details worked into...

Fun little illustrations can really make your website shine, in this case it's what makes it go entirely. The site itself is really simple in design and execution, there's not much else going on here other than the illustrations. That's okay though because it's cute...

I love the simple and minimal design to this blog. I don't normally go for a dark background site that has this much textual content on it, but everything here seems to be really set in a way that's not hard to read. There are also some subtle interactions here that...

I really dig the home page of this site, I love the big image and the way the slideshow is executed. Really nice minimal feel and the way the tool tip image folds out on top of the client logos is really nice. I do think however that some of the sub pages lack the...

That background is intense! I really enjoyed looking at that and the matching footer area. I like how they worked one of the logos into the header - I'm still looking for the other one... It's looks like they had a lot of fun making these graphics which are very...

I love the feel of this website, the illustrations/mascot is a nice idea here. Bringing a since of fun and joy to the layout of your web app site can really work in your favor. It can put users in a good frame of mind while working with your app too. Design wise I...

This site is simply beautiful. The texture, the type, the interactions, it's all there and it's great. For once here's a great restaurant/food website and the menu isn't a PDF or a flash page. Every section is integrated well into the overall design too.

Clever website and iPhone site/app concept. The iPhone site/app is by far superior to the main website in many ways. I do like the feel of it, it has a nice soft feel and the colors all mesh well together. It does indeed have some design cliches to show off and it's...

Awesome portfolio site, with some really good work to boot. I love the interactions and the winking view master logo is brilliant. The architecture of this site is wonderfully simple, when you have work this good to show off all you need to do is show it off...

I really like the unique color scheme on this site. The mint green and orange combo are relaxing and even appetizing - maybe because it kind of reminds me of sorbet. The orange works really well guiding my eyes through the content to certain areas of attention. It's...

I can't decide whether the austerity of this site is to it's detriment or not. I really like that it's a departure from the average busy and blinged out site for most hosting companies. On the other hand, there are some large areas of white-space that just seem a bit...
playlab.it
I like the almost 3D elements used across this site, the main type looks really crisp too. The portfolio is fairly extensive too, with the full screen website images, very nice. I also like that this site is multi page, I thought it was a single page jQuery website at...

The thing that makes this website design interesting is the iPhone style slider at the top that acts as a sort of funnel to ask a user whether they're part of a team or an individual. I think it's a pretty nifty little thing, except for the slight counterintuitive...

Love this blog design, love the subtle tones and interactions. From top to bottom the design of this site shows great attention to detail, from the interactions to the icons for each post type. I really love the home mouse over animation, check that out will ya. I...

I really like the implied simplicity in this home page design. The stark background and hard edges on all the elements leads you to see this as a very simple layout, however it isn't, the grid is complex enough to pull your eye down from the large slideshow images...

In less capable hands, using a bit of a 'cloud' motif to reference the more technical aspects of 'the cloud' could come off a bit ham-fisted, bit this site really nails it. I love the light feel of the white, rounded 'clouds'. The splashes of color sprinkled about by...

I really like this design, it's really monochromatic and looks like it would be soft to the touch somehow. The colors used for contrast are also chosen well. There are some nice little details in this design as well, the 'up' arrow that disappears when you are at the...
