Kiki & Bree is a twin apparel website, that alone is an interesting concept for a business. The design of the site is pretty straight-forward, I like the photography it's what really sells the website for me. It's clean and crisp photography that was clearly well...

This is a wonderfully playful conference website, you'd expect it to be something pretty awesome looking for twitter's first conference like this and the guys at Carsonified deliver. The thing I like about it is that while it's really playful it's not over the top,...

Lovely looking design on The Gates Notes. Both Jay and I love the look of this website. We do feel that the fonts are all a bit too small to be read easily. The overall design is unique and full of fine detail. Spend a couple of minutes and check out the screen cast...

Really cleanly designed and executed website. I love the red and the background patterns/imagery is really cool looking. The different header images have a nice look to them as well.
risermedia.com
There isn't anything on this site that's rule breaking or trend setting, but what is here is done well and executed cleanly. The thing that catches my eye most is that the background will change out to match the main "featured" imagery from the portfolio, that's a...

From @NeutronUK: The new Neutron Creations website is live! http://neutroncreations.com - blog post about the site here: http://bit.ly/6ksmZe Screen cast review of the new Neutron Creations website with Jason Beaird This website was designed by Elliot Jay Stocks...

Wonderfully illustrated design. I love the colors and detail work in this website. I think I like the little icons on the main nav at the top most, and the footer really catches my eye as something that's really nicely done. There's a really in depth post about the...
projectbubble.com
Clean simple design, the two columns help keep it that way too. I love the colors and easy going interactions on the screenshot type images. This site may need to evolve into having more content but for now it's working fine.

I love the different background images and color shifts as you go from page to page. The wide looking format on this design is pretty good too, I don't see that much. That feeling that the site is "wide screen", I like it. There's a lot of interactions to discover on...
thinkorange.pt
Great use of white space to help support the illustration work. Which is superbly simple and fantastic. This is a great use of the scrolling page effect, since the white space really drives it to you. Check out what Gio and I have to say in the screen review, we go...

Super slick looking graphic work on this site. I love the main image/illustration, blows me a away. The entire site has that super awesome icon feel. What's also great is that there's all this over the top (this is why I love it) feeling graphic work and barely any...

Really great looking design for kid based products. I love the colors and the rounded type. Really makes me think of my kids. It's simple and straight forward, very nice.
wearehunted.com
This is a great website. It's deceptively simple. There are lots of little interactions that appear hidden at first look on this site that are actually quite deep and fun to use. The main grid of images of the musicians is straight forward enough, but the next and...
Lynn Cyr
Submitted by Lynn Cyr, @LynnCyrArtist. Designer. I usually love sites that have a real hand-drawn, rough and sketchy feel, this one has that but it doesn't quite go all the way. I like the large photo of Lynn, and it achieves the most important part of any personal...
weluv.it
Really cool looking side-scrolling website design. I love the photography but I then get drawn into the simple yet sexy design of this site. Nice clean typography, nice easy to understand navigation and usability (even though it scroll sideways.) Love it.
boxee.tv (redesign)
Redesign for the Boxee.tv site (we covered their previous version here.) I love the fly out menus with the forms and stuff in them. The fly "down" vimeo video is pretty clever too, I don't think i've ever seen anything quite like that. Simple as it is it's a pretty...
IGN Entertainment
This is a pretty awesome looking website. I like the use of the scrolling page effect here, with the static nav bar at the top it's really successful. I say that because, for example, when you click the "contact" link it loads a different page, no sliding effect and...
Jarred Bishop
This site baked my noodle. At first I just started scrolling down then I realized something weird was going on. The background was doing something weird but I couldn't quite put my finger on. It took a minute to really grasp what was going on but it's actually a...
mattbudd.co.uk
Submitted by Matthew Budd, @matthewbudd. Designer & Developer. Original dark and creepy design, stands out from the crowd and uses a lot of modern techniques to make the design look great but also make the content very accessible. Sufficiently creepy is what Gio and I...

Pretty awesome looking portfolio site, I always love it when designers make their sites themselves the work that gets shown off. I mean when you don't have a ton of commercial work to put in your portfolio just kick some ass on your own site. This one is pretty great,...
brettterpstra.com
Good looking site with some nifty features. I like the sidebar that scrolls and sticks with you and the interactions on the main nav and work samples in the left sidebar are subtle and well done. I also like the 3D styling for the header shapes. Nice work.

Damn I love museo, I promise this isn't the only reason this site made it into the gallery. I do love the background's subtle texture and the colors are very nice. I love that particular green. The little javascript extras are really nice too, not too much either. One...
wildfireapp.com
I like the "large" feeling to all the elements on this site. There's also some nice detail work in the elements on the page(s) too. The thing that I love most about this page is the "sign up" button, that's just nice with the overlayed arrow/square shape. The thing...
MyFonts Email
It's unusual to discuss an email newsletter on this site, it's honestly a trend I hope to be able to continue though. This is really a great design, it does a couple of things really well. One, it keeps all the information delivered via the email, there's no shortened...

I love the visual subtlety and the not-so-subtle content paired together like this. The site is simple beautiful with the textures, colors and imagery all working together. I especially like the over state on the logo, surprising and almost hidden. This site doesn't...
The Old State (redesign)
Submitted by Travis McElroy, @TheOldState. Designer & Developer. Recent full site redesign. Hope you enjoy it! We've featured The Old State before as well as their blog, the Statement. These guys do great work and they pay great attention to their own branding and web...

Pretty great typography and spacing of all the type and elements as you scroll down the site. I like the subtle interactions and fragile feeling the thin lines take on. Good dark background site design here.
Riot Industries
Found via @squaredeye loving the interactions at http://riotindustries.com/ Pretty clever interactions on this site, I like the feeling of sorting rather than loading new images or pages that it gives. Very beautiful colors and type to boot. Lots and lots of things to...
preserveproducts.com
Very clean and well organized product based website. At first glance it comes off rather boring but the typography is top-notch and you can see the underlying architecture is well done. Our favorite part is the product gallery pages, how the image of the product is...
nicewebtype.com
Really nice multi-column design. I like the nav that stays static as you scroll down the page and how the 2-3 columns to the right start to break the past posts up into smaller blocks. The colors are also nice, I love the blue with the reddish/brown background.
