This is a recipe card with a difference. The design and recipe is subtly engraved into the card making for an incredibly tactile experience. It's a little hard to read but totally worth it for the design impact.

I really like the colour palette used here, particularly the use of colour in the header section of the site. The vibrant wave-like logo is striking and makes a strong statement. I also like the use of graphic illustrations throughout the site, they add some great colour and interest.

A wonderfully ingenious calendar design for an energy company. Each month is made from a comb of matches! It perfectly captures the idea of energy, and would make each day feel like a significant event.

A vibrant and instantly striking site for an entertainment agency. I really like the consistently colourful design and use of graphic illustrations to contrast with the photography. It's immediately obvious what this company does, one of the key signs of a well designed site.

An absolutely stunning clock interface for the iPhone. I love the bold use of black and white and the unique design ideas implemented here. The designer clearly has a keen eye for typography!

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!

An awesome site that showcases fascinating high quality gadgets. The use of photography is excellent, as is the uncluttered nature of the site. I particularly like the concept that the page should scroll sideways, it's novel and adds an interesting twist to the gallery format.

While this is of course a web design, it fits perfectly into the category of interface design due to its beautifully tactile user interface. I love the draggable menus, switches, and buttons, they really make this a fun place to be. While many sites could become frustrating with this amount of user interaction, a designer's personal portfolio is the perfect place to try out wacky user interface ideas.

You don’t have to be the most creative person in the world to create a practical business card. This person threw a quick one year calendar on their card. This is really handy to have in your wallet and is a great way to help ensure the person carries your card around for at least a year!

A simple yet effortlessly stylish site for a freelance web designer. I like the effective use of white and greys for the background and text, the contrast with the blue focal section is great! I particularly like the use of a split background, the textured section at the top looks good in partnership with the plain white section.

A brilliant concept that aims to provide retail stores with a mobile point of sale device. I love the simple touchscreen idea and perceived compact size of the device. The idea that it would clip onto your pocket or shirt and allows sales to be made from anywhere could revolutionise the way we shop.

This one is a fully-functional sliding caliper! If someone gave me this I would definitely keep it in my desk for quick-measuring and would constantly be reminded of their business. A stunning, albeit expensive, business card solution!

A clean and functional site for a web and graphic design company. I like that the header section is left purely text. You can immediately get a grasp on what it is the company does. The consistent use of a monochrome colour palette is effective, although a little contrast wouldn't have gone amiss.

DJs need business cards and you pretty much can\'t top one that is a turntable! As you spin the record, different information is revealed. An ingenious mechanism that makes your potential client actively want to read your information! I love the beautiful simplicity of the design and commitment to the concept.

A beautifully restrained and minimal site for a wholesale cufflink supplier. It superbly thought out for a corporate site and is an extremely effective web presence for a company like this. The consistent design is great and the colour palette works really well.

An absolutely fascinating approach to user interface design. This is a contact page like no other... The hand-drawn style is used effectively, and while I not totally on board with the changing of the mouse and attempts to get you to view the site fullscreen, it's certainly a different approach to a contact page!

An excellent logo for a producer and DJ that makes good use of a solid black background. It could have worked well to use more outstanding colours, the palette is a little restrained. I do, however, like the typeface chosen and the white of the text really stands out on the black background (as always).
