This site is showing off lots of custom typography. The fonts look really great and give the site a unique feel. I alos like how some of the content is fixed while other parts scroll. This is smart, efficient and stylish.

This site features awesomely unique illustrations that have a sort of fantastical feel to them. The photography used in conjunction with the illustrations is perfect as well and the color scheme ties it all together nicely.

This site really struck me as unique. The graphics and photography are quite dramatic. I love the simplified borderless thumbnail gallery that scrolls over a fixed background.

Another site with a giant full width slideshow at the top (a new trend?). This is an undeniably attractive page with big bold graphics and colors that really grab your attention.

This site features beautifully rich graphics, solid icon design and attractive custom fonts. I especially like that the slideshow at the top takes up the full browser width. That is a neat trick that I do not often see!

Insrpiredology is an awesome blog with an awesome new design. The header illustration is stellar and is both humorous and quite impressive. Also, the post format is really clean and easy to follow and the footer is quite well done.

This site could use some work on the details but the overall look is colorful and attractive. I like the tabbed layout with the animated hover effects and image slider. I might suggest having another go at the typography and icons though.

An excellent mix of colors and texture to create a clasy sort of aged look. I love the typography and the sign elements. The layout is also right on and utilizes plenty of whitespace.

For the record is an interesting site that features attractive infographics mostly built with CSS3. I like the retro feel in conjunction with simple shapes and bright colors. The combination really comes together to complete the overall feeling of the design.

Photographer sites are best when the designer lets the photos speak for themselves by making them the largest element on the page. This designer definitely got it right. The classy minimalist design really helps highlight the work o display.

This site uses a large jQuery slider and lots of icons to create a strong visual message. The pops of color around the page really help draw your eyes to the important elements.

This site is for an iPad app that allows designers to create a digital portable portfolio. The page design is really classy and minimal with nice thin typography and bold contrast with the iPad frame.

An interesting site that uses a sewing metaphor for graphic design services. Vector Stories uses old style sketches and grungy paper textures to achieve a believable aged look.

I am almost always surprised to find a physical product website that I actually like. This great looking e-commerce site uses great looking design elements, a bright and attractive color scheme and nice typography to sell electric bicycles.

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.

A beautiful site that uses a typical but stylish 3D web page layout, subtle background textures and rich colors. They typography throughout the page is particularly well done. Notice the mixture of thick almost western serifs with thin condensed sans-serif type.

This site features a very textured design with some aged paper and other rough areas and stains. As you scroll down you will see some nice faux water color effects and illustrations.

The poster theme for this site feels really unique and is extremely well done. The key here is large overstated graphical items that come together in a very non-linear way.
