A simply effortless site for a creative agency that makes an impact through its restrained use of colour - I love the orange used for details and icons.

Riley Cran
A simply superb portfolio site for a designer and illustrator in Vancouver, BC. I love the total lack of descriptive text, it helps to intrigue you further and draw you in.

A neat example of UI buttons that use colour to differentiate between the pressed and unpressed versions. I like the little icons and the colour shading.

Profile Cards
A great design for a web interface that uses a team page. I really like the clean design and lack of visual clutter. The icons are excellent and the use of colour is excellent.

Rocket Lolly
A almost lickably gorgeous icon for iOS that takes its inspiration from classic rocket lollies. I love the combination of colour and texture to create a lively and dynamic design.

Austin Beerworks
A stunning site for a brewery that makes a bold impact through its use of impressive typography. I love the colours of the background and the restrained use of text, you're intrigued to see what the next slide will be.

Reels on Wheels
A great logo for a non-profit that delivers movies, CDs, and other related materials to the elderly. I like way the logo takes the concept put forth in the name and runs with it, the use of a consistent illustrative style giving the company a strong brand.

Lighted Rocker Switch
An indescribably gorgeous replication of a physical rocker switch, made by someone who clearly values diligence and attention to detail. I love the way the lighting has been created, and the use of texture to add depth to the design.

Three Drops
An interesting branding exercise that gives several possible example of a 'drop' design. I particularly like the consistent ideas that come through and the coherence of the three designs.

Pioneers
I have included this site almost entirely because of the leading slider. I really like the effect create by the photographic slideshow, particularly the way each one dissolves into focus.

Wunderkind
A simply great logo that sticks in your mind from the first time you see it. The use of the first letter of the brand as the mark always works well to aid recognition. I particularly like the symmetry and the use of orange for the mark.

LYO FOOD
A solid site that makes an immediate impact. I really like how strong the logo is and the use of orange to highlight specific design details. The grid layout below works well to give visitors the information they need.

Mark by James Viola
A simple gorgeous example of an abstract logo mark. I love the chosen colour palette and the beautiful use of fading to emphasise the curvature of the mark. I particularly enjoy the vaguely confusing logic of the knot-like logo.
