This site has a giant, animated purple octopus hanging upside down from the top of the screen. Enough said. The colors and design elements are actually really attractive, I love the messy circle effect used in the graphics below the header.

Kleeve
Kleeve sells custom t-shirts with unique illustrations. The product is displayed well on the homepage with high quality photography with a homegrown feel. The scribbled treatment at the top of the page is nice and reinforces the art element found in the shirts.

The giant photographic header is a beautiful element that immediately grabs your attention. Other nice touches include the pop of orange and the blurry transparency on page tabs.

Wawa Coffeetopia
The colors and swirly artwork on this site are a perfect visual suggestion of coffee and the photographic elements and textures have been skillfully combined in Photoshop. Overall, it is a nice looking site that feels unique while remaining easy to use.

Miralize
A nice bold design with lots of big elements. Normally I would not be crazy about using all caps through the entire site but it works well here with the bold condensed font.

A fairly simple but attractive portfolio page with a horizontal image slider as the main visual element. Note the repetitive use of the dot pattern and the generous use of whitespace.

This page header is bursting with awesome graphics screened and faded onto the background texture. I like the mixture of city and nature graphics in the same space. This reinforces the coexistence element of the message.

Redup
This site features a great looking modern design with nice illustrations and attractive typography. The rocket ship creates a strong focal element which is then flanked by two clearly written mission statements. Definitely some great work!

An excellent mix of colors and texture to create a clasy sort of aged look. I love the typography and the sign elements. The layout is also right on and utilizes plenty of whitespace.

Yiipu
This is a very simple site with two key design elements: typography and color. The type choices are really quite nice, I like the inset letterpress look. The colors are mostly uniform but still quite bright and friendly.

Reportage Photography
Photographer sites are best when the designer lets the photos speak for themselves by making them the largest element on the page. This designer definitely got it right. The classy minimalist design really helps highlight the work o display.

It is nice to see a designer put a lot of thought towards aesthetics on a site for a local business. I like the use of shiny red elements scattered throughout the page and the modular structure of the information.

This site presents an interesting mix of grunge textures and modern design elements. I love the shadows under the portfolio items and the faux sticker look.

Robert Padbury
A strong but simple page design utilizing a single column. I love how big everything on the page seems. Every element on display takes up nearly the full browser window and the typography is well above normal.

Organic Themes
Organic themes is an excellently design site with a beautiful header and lots of nice graphical elements. Notice how there are only one or two simple leaf shapes that have been repeated throughout the site at different rotations to really carry the theme. Simple and effective!
