Cloud Pollen
A nice looking site with a simple design featuring a floating Google Chrome browser window tied to the ground like a hot air balloon. I like the gradient on the background and the clean two column layout at the bottom.

HDQT
A beautiful site with a nice dark theme and several rich illustrations. The site is all one long, scrolling page and there is a winding microphone cable that travels with you throughout the site. I also like that the navigation stays with you as you scroll.

Rapture of the Deep
This site features a crazy design that is quite random and busy, but in a good way. The unique design uses bright color, rich textures and a silly personality to attract your attention.

This site features great contrast, beautiful typography and lots of really nice subtle design touches. I really lie the dark, noisy background and the gallery of portfolio pieces. There is also a bit of an Easter Egg in the site, can you find it?

A simple but attractive design featuring an image slideshow with a Ken Burns effect. I like the minimal design, the smooth clean lines, the contrasting dark colors on the white background, and the overall classiness is portrayed.

This design features huge typography and a slightly transparent background screened over a blurry photo. The dark header contrasts nicely with the white background and the simple vertical navigation seems just right for the design.

This site features a really nice oversized header with a dark, noisy background, thin typography and tons of negative space. The content below is divided into clean, rounded corner boxes broken up into three columns. Stop by the work page to see a nice two column portfolio layout.

The web design here is fairly simple, just a gray background and a simple grid layout. However, the artwork on display here is remarkably attractive. Definitely a great site to add to your inspiration list!

The Wisdom of Bees is a book that uses the metaphor of a bee hive to teach practical business lessons. The wonderfully simple site features simple but perfect illustrations, a bright yellow background and well chose typography. If you watch for long enough, one of the bees flaps his wings!

Assisted Serendipity
This clever site uses FourSquare to tell you if the male/female ratio is in your favor at a given location. The undoubtedly feminine site uses pink gradients and curvy fonts to clearly target the fairer gender. I love the little map graphic with a single 3D building.
