I really enjoy teacakedesign.com because, while the layout and design present the work beautifully, the main thrust of the design revolves around making it easy for a visitor to navigate through the work. On teacakedesign.com, I enjoyed the ability to move through the...
What a brilliant idea, looks great and works well with rotation. Even better they make a mobile friendly version too, a smart and thoroughly enjoyable design.
jeremycowart.com is a great site to show off Jeremy's work. The homepage is striking in its boldness and gives a direct and immediate view of some of Jeremy's best work and the rest of the design is bold, minimal and progressive. The use of masonry doesn't hurt either.
University websites are a great place to study how large sprawling organizations with tons of content handle things. In this case the change in navigation design is largely from the wide horizontal nav structure with drop-down sub elements to the iPhone screen sized...
Today, I'm playing the hometown card and giving a shout-out to Charlotte's own digital design studio Big Noise for their sweet website. The illustrations are what really sell me on the site. They're fun, there's a ton of them, and they really give you a sense of the...
Tons of app sites have pretty much the same structure. On one side of the layout, a large image of an iPbone (of course, with the app onscreen) dominates the composition. On the other side of the layout, the main tagline tells us how the app will change our lives....
What a great website to study the different screen size experiences with. I love the three major size designs here. The wider has the nice nav inline next to the logo area and then as you scale in it slides under the logo. With the final iPhone sized screen having the...
Wishbone.org is a very cool site. Wishbone is a project that revolves around educating and retaining at risk students. You've got to love people who want to help educate our kids, so ten points for that. In addition to that, wishbone.org is a tight design, full of...
Nice clean website for selling these oversized prints. I dig the blockiness of the design, it echoes the idea of the framed prints very well visually. There are some nice little details like the mouse over on the logo and the way the text of the print loads as you...
I love this site's mix of aged, textured fonts and simple structure. The combination of these two elements works really well with the photograph of the cider bottle. The golds and off whites work well with the black background, as well, though the text is a little too...
The new disqus.com is pretty neat. Disqus is rolling out quite a few new features into their product, so to bring users up to speed quickly and easily, their site has become an interactive demonstration on how these new features will affect conversations on the web....
The thing I like most about this site is the extra wide screen size treatment, having the images fold out like one of those masonry type websites set's this design off. I like how the images are also nav items and mostly mirror the navigation on the left. The sub...

Paralax Scrolling html5 site for a hairstylist from schwerin / germany Submitted by: herrlich media @fimbim Role: Designer & Developer Cool interactions on this parallax design. I like the stark black and white and the way the lines animate in on page load. Then as...
There's truly a whole lotta sexy going on with this site. Aesthetically and developmentally it's a site full of rich treasures. No exaggeration. I almost don't want to point anything out and just let you experience it on your own, but I suppose I wouldn't be doing my...
I'm not ashamed to say the illustrations do it for me here. There's something to be said for the emotional responses they evoke. The site itself is pretty straightforward but where I think this wins is that the drawings give life and a positive personality to what...
I love the look and execution of the WorkSpaces website. The responsive design and parallax effect with the main images is quite well done. It gives an overall timeless feeling design some current edge. Typically I don't like it when a design hides navigation items...
Very nice textural and layered design. I love the feel to this site design, the dark header and footer areas with the light background content section in between on the homepage is a nice way to ground the page. The typography is well done all across the website as...
This one pager has a really nice aesthetic to it. It comes standard with the usual suspects: good (typography, use of color, texture). I like the couple of small animated elements such as the portfolio brain loader and auto-advancing services. I feel like some...
Okay, so I might be cheating a bit with this review, but when I saw this yesterday, I just had to write about it. While I do like the landing page for Just Landed, the helpful video of the app in action, the little touches like the animated clouds and jet to drive...
Google has done a lot lately to refine their visual style, and this couldn't be more true than in the Google Ventures website. Beautiful photography, simple and clean typography, and a clever use of icons, make the site a joy to look at and simple to use. Whitespace...
Fantastic innovation on display here; Timothee has really gone to town creating this inviting and rewarding website. For such a small website content-wise there is a wealth of inviting features, such as a strong and fun navigation system, an unconventional colour...
Submitted by: Michael Scantlebury @weareimpero Role: Designer Wonderful interaction overall on this website. The horizontal scrolling elements keep it super interesting - after all it's the same basic two types of animations but it just keeps looking fresh as you go...
I really liked looking through and interacting with this site. I don't know that there's anything profound about it, and at the risk of sounding bland in my description - it's just NICE! There's a great feel due in part to the shimmery color scheme, typography, and...
Lovely site for children's clothes by neve / hawk. It's simple and clean and feels very classic like the clothes. I can't really imagine trying to create a brand for clothes that fits the clothes' style and the website at the same time. Bravo, great work here.
What can I say? Scroll that page, my dear friends and see something very cool. This is a very clever design. Its minimal and sleek, with very few elements... initially. Then, as we scroll down the page, we are shown something beautiful and engaging... and then we see...
Alienbikes.com is lovely. Well, it's mostly lovely. I think the gallery is under designed, but its a small complaint. I want to focus on the store. First of all, the store offers only a few items so the layout is considerably more open than most commerce sites. It...
I love how all the items/things used on the page are rendered, even the iPhone. It creates a very unique vibe. I love the colors and the dark first half and light second half, it creates a nice dichotomy for the site design. I also dig the way the slideshow is used,...
Nice single page website for an iPhone app. I like how all they do is just show off the app and focus on telling the story of what the app does. Putting you in a scenario you can understand quickly with just a background image of a map and a sentence "sending your dad...
Gene must be in love with full screen imagery and minimalism because oldbarbershop.com.au is another great example of both. The design is so simply structured that, even though its responsive, one break point suffices to accomodate all devices. I think thats...
