Pop The Box

This site uses an awesome argyle patter in conjunction with a perfect color scheme and some subtle textures. I love the bold script font used here and the fixed background that makes the content seem to float on scroll.

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.

Liam McCabe

I love how simple and attractive this site is. The gray gradient background works perfectly with the inset box at the top. I also really like the integration of the Dribbble feed complete with animated hover effects. Great work!

Weaverant

This site is dominated by a large image slider containing extremely simple but attractive graphics. If you scroll to the bottom you will see the features listed in yet another slider with large great looking icons.

Noah Stokes

A really nice photo-centric design with beautiful graphics and an awesome color palette. I really like the double column layout and strokes in the actual blog area, it is a fairly typical layout but looks particularly attractive here.

Tap Mates

This is a beautiful page advertising the design services of the popular iPhone developer Tapmates. The individual sections of the page flow nicely together while being very visually distinct through the use of excellent textures and a nice color palette.

Kaleidoscope App

This page is simply a beautiful piece of web design and is one of my all time favorites. The page is broken up into individually designed sections to show off the apps features. Each section has a unique and attractive theme. There are subtle touches throughout that are simply superb. Be sure to keep an eye on the logo at the top!

Edward Dark

This unique portfolio site features sort of a dark and mysterious design. It is a bit different than the type of design we normally feature and should inspire you to consider alternate styles when creating something that really fits your personality.

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.

Its Workable

This site follows the typical corporate web service layout we have seen so much lately, but it pulls it off nicely. I like the colors, large screenshots and simple navigation area. The large sign up button is no doubt a winner for snagging conversions.

Ed Nacional

A very simple but attractive design that contains some nice subtle graphical flavor. I love the single pixel line and the connected flag on the left side of the page, the header that stays with you as you scroll and the unexpected flash of bright orange when you hover over a link.

Kean Richmond

I really like the letterpressed typography and mixture of soft and bold colors in this site. The brightly colored thumbnails have a nice rounded corner border and turn grayscale when you hover over them. If you stop by the site, be sure to check out the nice graphic in the footer. Another great feature is the "back to top" button that stays with you as you scroll.

Vuu

I really like the soft abstract background on this site and the rounded content area with its transparent border. The blue color scheme works great with the grays and makes for a really classy looking page. Overall, a refreshingly different design!

Enstore

Enstore is a commerce platform that makes it easy to start your own online store. I absolutely love the beautiful and detailed icon design on this site. The color scheme is brilliant as well and really draws your attention to key areas.

AW Industries

Alexander's portfolio takes on a steel and purple hue, featuring a scrolling portfolio slideshow that appears to "hover" over the rest of the page. I also particularly like the contact page, which includes a postcard mockup, a rate card designed in the style of a till receipt, and a timeline showing how most design projects are worked through.

Real Mac Software

A popular Mac software developer, Realmac produce some gorgeous applications and have a website to match. Each app is given plenty of surrounding space, and navigation is very clear. The design is made particularly special due to the application icons which are used to great effect. Be sure to dig past the homepage to see a far more immersive and visually rich design.
