uchitomi.ch is out of control... in a good way. The art is bright and loud and pairs well with the product. Its awesomely Japanese. I think this site is great fun and doesn't sacrifice solid structure for novelty.
londonandpartners.com
Very nice responsive design. It's largely simplified in a really good way. The way the navigation is treated along side the main slideshow image is really smart. And the way the main image slideshow changes up for different screen sizes makes for an almost unique...
826seattle.org
I had a ton of fun surfing around this site. There's something fun, real, imaginative, and interesting about it. The color palette, textures, and type give it almost a retro feel. On the dev side of things there are nice touches of CSS3 around and a bit of...
pistachioapp.com
pistachioapp.com is a tiny site that just works. There isn't much to say about it, the design is pretty much the same pattern that almost everyone else uses to show off their mobile app, the logo and the green are pretty bitchin' and the kitty drawing is adorable....
switchtovirginamerica.com
Pretty cool idea and visual style. I like the 3d(ish) elements used for the nav and other stuff. Rather funny idea, put in your miles and they show you, kind of like an info-graphic how much your life has sucked not traveling with virgin. Smart design and smart idea.
hellostudios.com.au
Hello Studios is a small digital studio focused on web site design, user experience (UX) and development using modern day web standards. They believe a usable web site don’t mean it does not look good, in fact, just the opposite. For a website to be engaging to a user...
colbowdesign.com
Brad Colbow's recent design update to his personal website is simply wondrous. The background image is an illustrated version of what I think is Cleveland - it's just stunning. Brad is known for his illustration work and the Brad's comic he's worked on for a while....
eventipity.com
There are two things that I find engaging with this website design. First is the search, or "browse", design. It looks very much like a large search bar, but is broken down with two select boxes. It is rather intuitive and even though it could just sit there and...
kennethcachia.com
kennethcachia.com provides a truly dynamic experience. The design is very smart. The gallery portfolio pages have links to other works at the bottom of the page which creates a seamless flow from one project to another and eases the chore of moving through a large...
meacuppa.be
It's a one-page, parallax, responsive website for a mobile bakery and coffeebar. ( so be sure to scroll and resize your browser ) Submitted by: @chilli_be Role: Designer & Developer This site has a lot of style. The way the photos, colors and type create contrast...
techstars.com
I like this rather utilitarian design approach. It's largely focused around the main image, which is a video, then with a fixed navigation to the left rolls you into more content pretty easily. It's also responsive and has some nice choices shown for the different...
thelitpub.com
Under the stark details this is a straight forward blog like layout. But with the hard lines and the fixed right sidebar and fine little details make this site stand out to me. The good stuff is in the details here.
joppdesign.com
Pretty typical design formula at work here, large image, super good looking textures and other little details that tie it all together. The textures and organic feel really plays well with the site's hand made products it's selling. As good looking as this design is,...
2pxborder.co.nz
I really like the simplicity and understated quality of the 2pxborder.co.nz design. It lacks any main navigation and in most ways seems like its composed of the absolute bare essentials of what makes a useful site. However, this economy of design is the theme of the...
cheesesurvivalkit.com
Nice typography and sweet illustrations makes for a really great landing page experience. I love the visuals here and how it all ties together - just lovely.
100k.bigcartel.com
I really enjoy sites that have a very magazine-like appeal. 100k.bigcartel.com is such a site, relying on a strong integration of great photography and typographic treatments. The consistant overlay of type on image is dramatic and effective, though the titles can he...
calepino.fr
Beautiful clean lines and subtle grey to white blocks make this site great. I love the subtlety and simple changes in line thickness and how it all just has a paper product like feel to it but isn't over the top with it. Beautiful site.
blog.readmill.com
I love a really good simple and elegantly designed blog. Fine typography with typekit and a simple two column layout makes this blog a classic.
oink.com
The Oink iPhone App page from Milk is really nice. I like the simplicity and also the approach here - it's totally different from most iPhone App sites. These guys don't go in for the atypical Apple look, no they create their own and it's worth it. Really a stand out...
zerply.com
What I love about this site immediately is that there are several obvious ways to dig in and use it whether you’re seeking a professional or a professional who wants to be sought. The header carousel is smartly used. It doesn’t take up a lot of real estate, though you...
aboutdesign.nl
aboutdesign.nl is a nice and simple modular and responsive design with strong vertical columns. Line breaks in between content blocks act as counterpoint and create a nice visual rhythm that is energetic and entirely contemporary. I usually prefer designs with at...
350gram.dk
This is a really attractive and clever site. I don't have to know the language to figure out what's going on here. The creative "icons" and imagery inform as well as attract. The overall design is clean and crisp, but there's still a tactile element that anyone who's...
hatbox.co
Really beautiful and elegant design. I love the clean lines and subtle/limited interactions. The colors are very monochromatic which really helps keep the great minimal feeling. The site is also beautifully responsive. Love it!
vitoschnabel.com
Vitoschnabel.com has a nice minimalist graphic style that does a pretty cool job of using yellow and black. Its not a really common palette and I think that in this case, it looks sophisticated. The interactions are fairly simple, its basically an information site,...
lancs.ac.uk
I'm loving this new trend of University websites that are responsive. This one here for Lancaster University is no exception. Very craftily executed responsive design and was a pleasure to discover in our submission queue. I particularly like the single rounded corner...
kccreepfest.com
Wowzers the illustrations are amazing. So full of character and it just brings the site to life. I like the main navigation going from below the main illustration to the header and staying fixe, nice little detail. Lovely website!
tabspresso.com
Really great illustrations and texture work used together here for a great purpose. I love the way the header loads a black background as you scroll down - that's a really nice touch and unexpected little detail. It's just a single page website but the attention to...
grazsecrets.at
Very visually rich with very little worked into it. I love it when something simple like this design can look so rich and deep. I really love the almost chalkboard like background & writing. The animated logo/shape is also pretty cool as an attention grabber. Can't...
lakehouse.com.au
I like websites that are simply executed but deliver so very well. From the large images (that are super nice looking) to the ivy that surrounds the lower half of the home page's marquees. When you're able to hit good notes like that with easy looking execution you...

The illustrations set the tone so well on this website. So nice from top to bottom they sell the event's mood nicely. Overall it's a pretty clean website design, strong grid and thought out color scheme. Very well done.
