Squeeze Creative
An immediately intriguing site for a creative design agency. In this instance I really like the use of a static left sidebar, it allows consistently intuitive navigation of the site. The area of black space on the right seems a little pointless and negatively affects the weighting of the layout. The focal slideshow, however, is great and works hard to hold your attention!

Stripe Generator
Here we have a simple stripe generation tool that\'s simply called Stripe Generator. The preview box is great and looks even better when used with really bold colours! I like the chunky custom designed sliders and effortlessly intuitive interface.

A incredibly stylish business card for a fashion designer. I love the choice to use gold on black, it\'s sleek and utterly sophisticated! The symmetry of the design is great and complements the clean layout.

Ray Cheung
The fascinating personal site of an online entrepreneur! The overall design, of pages on a wood effect background, works well to grab and hold your attention. The use of icons is great and complements the relatively intuitive layout of the site.

Personal Wellness Revolution
A great logo for a fitness company! The word revolution is perfectly played out in the shape of the logo. I particularly like the red colour that\'s been used here, although I do feel the central design should have been properly symmetrical.

A beautifully subtle site for a letterpress printer and designer. The restrained colour palette really allows the gorgeous photographs of his work to take centre stage! I particularly like the straightforward single column layout, the site effortlessly leads you through the process.

Colour Scheme Designer
An awesome Web App for designing a colour scheme. I love the colour wheel and how well it contrasts with the grey background! I like the intuitive layout and how it fills your browser so there\'s no need to scroll.

Alize
An artistic design for a wrap around business card. That the paint splash is a continuous design that flows from the front to the back is a great idea, although it may go unnoticed most of the time! I particularly like the earthy colour palette and signature style typeface used for the text on the front.

A stripped back yet gorgeous site for royalty-free vector icons for designers. I love that the background is kept simple in order to give the icon design centre stage! I particularly like the typefaces used and choice of colours for the icon sets.

Prestige Club
A stylish wrap around business card design that uses a wallpaper style texture to make an impact. I like the colour palette used and find that it\'s perfectly suited to its purpose. The detailing on the pattern is what really makes this design!

A simple but stylish site for a designer that makes great use of a focal slideshow. I like the restrained use of colour for the menu and text sections of the site. The grid of her favourite tools is a nice touch!

MyFourWalls
MyFourWalls is an incredibly powerful and feature packed interior design and layout application. It makes good use of standardised UI ideas, such as drop down menus and sliders, while also moving beyond and incorporating some ideas of its own! The virtual representation of your room is amazing and can really give you a feel for how it will look.

Sergii Bogulavkyi
An excellent example of ingenious business card design. This card creates a cube when folded open to display its bright orange innards! I like the contrast between the monochrome outer faces and the luminescent orange of the inner faces.

A stunning site for a kitchen design company! I love the massive photographic slideshow and the incredible impact it has when you first visit the page! The logo is stylish but subtle and works really well on the slightly transparent menu bar.

GrooveMaker
Complicated is the first that springs to mind when you open up GrooveMaker for the iPad! Fortunately it\'s mostly an illusion, many of the buttons are in patterns that are repeated. A lot of thought has gone into the interface design here, buttons light up and sliders move, it really is a joy to use!
