FontStruct
FontStruct is a Web App designed to help you build, share, and download fonts. First off I\'m really keen on the logo, it\'s got a great retro feel to it! The toolset is simple and quick to pick up, a good sign of solid interface design.

Hoban Cards
A beautifully subtle site for a letterpress printer and designer. The restrained colour palette really allows the gorgeous photographs of his work to take centre stage! I particularly like the straightforward single column layout, the site effortlessly leads you through the process.

An awesome Web App for designing a colour scheme. I love the colour wheel and how well it contrasts with the grey background! I like the intuitive layout and how it fills your browser so there\'s no need to scroll.

Alize
An artistic design for a wrap around business card. That the paint splash is a continuous design that flows from the front to the back is a great idea, although it may go unnoticed most of the time! I particularly like the earthy colour palette and signature style typeface used for the text on the front.

A simple but stylish site for a designer that makes great use of a focal slideshow. I like the restrained use of colour for the menu and text sections of the site. The grid of her favourite tools is a nice touch!

MyFourWalls
MyFourWalls is an incredibly powerful and feature packed interior design and layout application. It makes good use of standardised UI ideas, such as drop down menus and sliders, while also moving beyond and incorporating some ideas of its own! The virtual representation of your room is amazing and can really give you a feel for how it will look.

Sergii Bogulavkyi
An excellent example of ingenious business card design. This card creates a cube when folded open to display its bright orange innards! I like the contrast between the monochrome outer faces and the luminescent orange of the inner faces.

A stunning site for a kitchen design company! I love the massive photographic slideshow and the incredible impact it has when you first visit the page! The logo is stylish but subtle and works really well on the slightly transparent menu bar.

GrooveMaker
Complicated is the first that springs to mind when you open up GrooveMaker for the iPad! Fortunately it\'s mostly an illusion, many of the buttons are in patterns that are repeated. A lot of thought has gone into the interface design here, buttons light up and sliders move, it really is a joy to use!

Fantastic design. I’m sure everyone who gets it can’t wait to throw it to see if it really flies. I hope it does.

A great site for a freelance designer that is a good example if a single column design. The header works really well to hold your attention, as does the focal text and graphic. The gallery is a nice touch and allows any prospective clients to immediately get a taste for his design style and philosophy.

Logo by Daniel Sensecall
A brutally simple logo design. I love the minimalist approach and abstract nature of the design, it\'s memorable by virtue of its simplicity! The lilac colour used here fits perfectly with the butterfly idea.

Aribeo
A wonderful portfolio site for a creative freelancer! I love that the sidebar remains stationary while you scroll through the gallery to the \'about me\' section. The minimalism of this design is great and perfectly adorned with little handwritten comments and doodles.
