Here we have a strong site for a web design and development company that uses its own unique style to make an impact. I particularly like the colour consistency and the intuitive layout.

No Effects Toggle
A superb example of a minimal toggle switch that's based on the great color scheme in "Afternoon in New York" by Allan http://drbl.in/ebSZ. I love the colours and the perfect proportions.

Video Play Button
An intended replacement skin for the Youtube button that makes an impression through its complete simplicity. I like the subtle use of blue to add character to the design and the gentle use of gradients.

Blue Lightbulb Icon
An interesting example of an icon that's bright and engaging while conveying a clear purpose. The lightbulb/pencil design has been done before, but it's a good motif.

Github Icon
A great icon design for a Github iPhone app. I really like the attention to detail and the crispness of the design, but I'm not sure about the rainbow colours.

Vision Event
A good example of a logo that takes a simple idea but adds depth using detail. The colour palette really works, as does the way the background mirrors the shape of the logo.

Knit Twitter Icon
An interesting concept for an alternative Twitter icon that makes great use of texture. The knitted bird works well to make you look again, although it's certainly not a direction Twitter themselves would ever go.

Mic Meter Switch
A gorgeous example of attention to detail in user interface element design. I particularly like the use of colour to give life to the meter and switch. The perspective of the switches is enticing, almost begging you to reach out and press them.

G Squared Studios
A striking site for a design studio based in Knoxville. The style of the site makes an immediate impression, the pixellated left border giving the site a distinct character. The typeface works well with the overall design of the site.

Let There Be Light
A gorgeous example of an icon for iOS. I love the varied and dynamic use of lighting effects and the blue colour that adds character to the design. The perspective works to add depth to the icon and make it that much more press-able.

Rendezview
A good logo for a meeting web app. The venn diagram concept works well for this kind of purpose. I like the quirky typeface and the interesting colour palette.
