Astronut

Futuristic sci-fi gameplay with a simple control structure, coupled with some really gorgeous interface styling. It's hard to pull off "space age" while retaining style, but Astronut nails it.

Grey Ang

This site uses a bold color spectrum and some nice but subtle particle animations in the background. I like the simplicity of the typography-centric design and how the content fades out and in when you switch pages.

Commotion

This site features awesomely unique illustrations that have a sort of fantastical feel to them. The photography used in conjunction with the illustrations is perfect as well and the color scheme ties it all together nicely.

Captovate

This site features beautifully rich graphics, solid icon design and attractive custom fonts. I especially like that the slideshow at the top takes up the full browser width. That is a neat trick that I do not often see!

The Solid Studios

A nice mix of serious and goofy design. The illustrated characters are quite silly and informal while the layout and other graphical elements remain professional and structured.

WebINK

WebINK is yet another service for using better fonts on the web. Ironically enough, I think the typography could use a little work on the page but the overall design is attractive and well organized.

Pointille

An interesting site with a dark color scheme, curvy tabbed navigation and a large abstract and eye-catching plant-like illustration. There are some points that could use some work but I like the grid background and the large typography.

Matthew Inman

A beautiful site featuring hints of both realism and cartoony illustration. I love the colorful hanging lanterns with their shadows being cast upon the text, the starry sky, and the tag strung from the top.

Three60

Three60 is a two man digital design company with a decent sense of humor. I absolutely love the animated pencil rocket ship on the blueprint background. It is a completely original graphic that really makes the site memorable. Other nice touches include the slowly changing customer testimonials in the top right and the subtle background gradient.

Woo Concept

This site is the online portfolio of Thibaut Ninove, a freelance web designer. I love the huge header, cool color scheme, and nice button design. This site does an excellent job at grabbing your attention and not letting go.

Made By Rocket

This design features a large slideshow as the primary visual. The bright colors stand out really well against the muted gray background. Notice that the little text above the slideshow has a letterpress effect but still remains live. An excellent use of CSS to create traditional Photoshop text effects.

The Last March

This is the website of an iPhone game called The Last March. The character design and illustration here is really top-notch and the color scheme is a nice mix of cool and warm tones.
