Viccolla
A ridiculously minimalistic site with a centred logo and a clear description of the company. The logo is a great focal point and the simple layout guides users straight to the portfolio and testimonials.

A bizarre but attractive portfolio site with plenty of stellar work on display. The heads are used as a recurring theme to show the relation of visual design to UX in each project. An interesting idea!

We do not see many painter portfolios so I wanted to feature this one. There is some really nice work on display and the site is fairly well designed. I particularly like the Apple-like 3D display of the art pieces near the bottom.

NeedStyle
A refreshingly original designer portfolio with lots of personalization. Obviously, the large letterpress effect is the hero of the design and really grabs your attention with contrast.

AW Digital
A fantastic portfolio that utilizes a dark theme and has a lot of solid design work on display. There are a lot of interesting hover effects throughout the site. When you hover over objects, they take on a digitized effect that is quite nice.

Icon Moon
A great looking page that serves as the portfolio for an icon designer. I like the cloud theme, the smooth slider and how the moon in the logo changes to a house on hover. Lots of great design work here.

Dropr
Dropr is a new site for creating multimedia-drive portfolios. The design utilizes an attractive and ornate illustration style with colorful animated raindrops falling from floating sketchy clouds.

A nice looking grid-based portfolio that changes color every time you refresh the page. The hover effects drop the color overlay and show the artwork in its true form. A nice effect that really brings focus to where the mouse is.

This site uses a giant iPad to display the designer portfolio. To mimic the functionality of the real iPad, you click and swipe to advance to the next image; a clever idea!

Chris Kinsey
This site is the portfolio of designer and student Chris Kinsey. The mixture of bold condensed and script fonts in the headline is a really nice combination. I also like the color scheme and the refreshingly different layout of the thumbnails and descriptions.

A fairly simple but attractive portfolio page with a horizontal image slider as the main visual element. Note the repetitive use of the dot pattern and the generous use of whitespace.

A simple but effective portfolio site that makes great use of a Twitter feed. I like the typography displayed here and the muted grayscale color palette.

Owen Shifflett
A really great looking portfolio page with super thin typography, a subtle background texture and even a little bit of humor. I love the contrast of the yellow on the black. These two colors always make a bold statement when combined and the result here is a fairly classy theme.

Vustom
A really unique looking portfolio with vertical rectangle samples and intense color. The design of this site is quite bold and even features an alternate style accessible via a button in the navigation. An interesting and fun idea!

EMPP Graphics
This site features a very thin layout with an extremely linear progression. Each portfolio piece is displayed one right after the other with a quick button to return to the top. The page is simple but effective and the work on display is quite beautiful.

This site uses a very simple layout to pull off a classy and minimal portfolio. The biggest section on the page is the work sample slider which really gives emphasis to the talent of the designer and therefore highlights the product for sale.
