Hillary Hopper Logo
This logo is just so clean and fresh it makes an immediate statement! I love the selection of typefaces and the interesting combination of colours. It's recognisable and gives you exactly the right impression about this designer.

Drops
A simply stunning site for a charitably project that aims to support Wateraid. I love the colour palette and consistent design throughout the site. The illustrated elements make a great impact, as do the little touches like the pictures of the team behind the site.

Jim Nielsen
An effortlessly clean and stylish portfolio site for a web designer. I particularly like that the site uses a consistent red, white, and black theme throughout. The simple typography and use of thumbnails help to give you an idea of this designer's work.

Contacts Icon
A solid icon design for an upcoming contacts app on iOS. Why you would need a different contacts app is beyond me, but the icon has a good sense of style. The use of textures and detail and a nice depth and character to the icon.

Orlebar Brown
A solid design for the site of a clothes designer that makes a statement by sticking to a limited colour palette. The monochrome photography and use of red works really well and gives the shop a level of style.

Tiny Player
A gorgeously simple interface element that really goes for conserving space! This tiny music player uses subtle colours and minor details to add depth to its minimal design.

ThemeINN
A slick holding page for a site that will hopefully become a useful resource for WordPress users. I like the badge and banner approach, the colours help to add depth and make this design jump out.

Promotion
A simply stunning icon design for an upcoming iOS app. I really like the attention to detail and carefully thought out use of textures. The dark wood surround works really well with the deep red silk and medal concept.

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.

Fanny Nordmark
A stripped back but effortlessly effective portfolio site for a graphic designer and illustrator. I love the grid layout of the portfolio page and the simple use of jQuery. The site gives a very clear idea of the designers style and approach.

Brewin Apps
An excellent and stylish business card design that uses colour to make an impression. I particularly like the smaller square shape and the effectiveness of punctuating the black with a colour wheel.

Emma J Shipley
A stunningly minimal site for a luxury scarf label founded by the eponymous, award-winning designer. I really like the use of photography and transitions to give you an immediate impression of the style of her work.

Twitter Bubble
A simply gorgeous redesign of the Twitter app icon for the Mac. I love the boldness of this design and the brightness of the colour palette. It's not as understated as Twitter likes to be but it can't help but make you feel happier...

Nocturne
It's always good to see interesting new approaches to iPhone app design. This nocturnally inspired interface certainly makes a mark. I appreciate the difficulty inherent in moving away from the standard, and quite like the circular icons.

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.

We Less Than Three
A great site for a Brooklyn based web design studio. The use of white space and black lines makes for an effortlessly clean design, a good indication of their style and taste.
