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.

Retrospective
This designer took an interesting route for presenting data in a visual form. The point in question is shown in a big colored circle in the middle and the related aspects are offshoot circles surrounding the main. A little odd but definitely fun!

This site features a very classy dark theme with beautiful colors and a nice, large image slider of recent work. I like that the images in the slideshow have actually been designed so that they give the illusion of changing the layout on the page. A great effect!

This site features an amazing full screen illustration of an octopus at the ocean sketching both on paper and on a tablet. It sounds ridiculous but the execution is stunning. The use of color and lighting effects is truly masterful.

Dmitri Bekasov
An absolutely beautiful site with an amazing rendering of a swiss army knife comprised of design tools. The page has been really stripped of content to highlight the large graphic. The site offers a cool freebies section that you should check out as well!

A dead-simple design that is quite attractive while featuring little else that a large slideshow of recent work. I particularly like the subtle 3D effect that has been applied to the boxes at the bottom of the page.
