A fascinating logo that uses a really interesting colour combination. The blues of the logotype work very well together but I'm unconvinced by their marriage to the background. I do like the textured effect on the type, however, and the standardised curvature of the letters.

A very straightforward yet effective site for a designer. I like the slideshow of featured projects and the simple use of colour throughout. I particularly like the way the navigation is animated!

Anfix
A simple but effective logo design that makes the two colour idea work hard! I love the combination of lime green and dark grey while the choice of lowercase for the text helps to make it recognisable. The use of gradient on the logo itself is really effective at making it shine and stand out!

David Crow
An incredibly bright and vibrant design for a business card! The colour is striking and immediately grabs your attention. The eye logo works really well as the focal point and is made even more effective by using white on such a bright background colour.

Sylvia
A fascinating business card design that makes great use of some intriguing art. The designs make an immediate impact, you can\'t fail to be interested! I also particularly like how this card is displayed on some rustic wooden floorboards.

Planet Logo
A beautifully clean and crisp logo that immediately conjures environmental imagery. The spherical planet-like idea works really well with the leaves like countries falling from its surface! The colour palette is excellent and perfectly complements the straightforward typeface.

Jaymus
A fascinating site for a branding and design company that utilises a huge featured project as the focal point. The attention to detail is excellent throughout, a lot of care has been put into giving the right impression. I particularly like the gallery section and icon design.

Boom is a simple but powerful Mac App for boosting your system volume! It\'s interface is perfect for its use and features a gorgeous looking equaliser function and great use of standard UI ideas. The sliders and switches are intuitive and there has clearly been a lot of effort put into the whole interface!

Background Labs
A great looking site that features a wide variety of Photoshop backgrounds, patterns, textures, and graphics. I love the way the greyed out Facebook, Twitter, and RSS icons spring into colour as you scroll over them! The site is intuitively laid out and features a nice section for seeing the most popular tags!

Domo Hotel
A superbly stylish and classy design for a hotel and spa. I love the unfussy nature of this design and the clean typeface used! That it works excellently in white on a black background is merely a bonus!

I Am T-Pain
The I Am T-Pain app is a voice recorder which uses the popular auto tuner effect from T-Pain. Although it may not be as slick as some Apps, it does make good use of curtains, lighting, and a grungy texture. I like the undeniably analog feel of the sliver switch on the tuning screen!

Vital
The use of natural colours here perfectly suits the idea of vitality! The word \'Formulas\' could perhaps be a little darker as on the white background it doesn\'t really make an impact, but otherwise a good logo. It is, however, a nice touch that this logo can remain unchanged and work well on a black background.

Tea Round
Tea Round is Russian roulette for those wanting to sort out who fetches the tea at the office for the day. The design elements used in the app are gorgeous and subtle detail like the steam make it a real winner! I love how effortlessly simple Tea Round is, in premise and design!

Pulse News Reader for iPad
Pulse News fo iPad sports what can only be described as a gorgeous interface. The use of neutrals and a light blue allows the photographs to take centre stage. I particularly like the transparency used throughout and the clear icons and typeface used.

A sharp design that draws the visitor in with friendly illustration. I like the clarity in the text and how quickly you are led to the important information. I particularly like the unique illustrations of the designers!

Rekon
A solid business card design that treads the line between being professional and standing out. The repeated company name works really well, as does the colour palette. Yellow on grey is a popular colour selection but remains effective.
