Tobias Persson
A rather fascinating site for a stand up comic that's bound to divide opinion. I find the movement of the image helps to give some character to the site and isn't too distracting. I really like the colour palette, the blue here works really well with the overall purple scheme of the site.

ClearWebSolutions
A clean and stylish site for a web developer. The slideshow works well to get any potential clients engaged and reading. The division of the background works well, the blue allowing the slideshow to prevail while the white allows easy access to the important information.

Rodania
A stunning site for a Swiss watch maker that oozes class and sophistication. I love the use of photography here, they've managed to perfectly capture something of the beauty of the designs. The whole site mirrors the design ethic of the company itself, something that's not always easy to pull off.

Daniel Büttner
A clean and stylish site for a web designer. The neutral colours and intuitive layout are effective at putting the visitor at ease. I particularly like the interesting navigation bar at the top of the site.

Two Paperdolls
A beautiful site that makes incredible use of typefaces. The uncluttered single column approach works really well here, you can't help but scroll to the bottom. I particularly like that you can roll back the top layer of text, it's a very nice touch.

Rain Interactive
An awesome site for a design agency that features a huge slideshow of previous projects. The slideshow is very effective at immersing the casual visitor to the site, while the simple yet brilliant concept of the three circles works well to get the identity of the company across. Some of the images are particularly striking!

Ron Rizzo
This is a fantastic site for a jewellery designer! I love the impact of the header and use of high quality photographs to capture the beauty of the diamonds. The way the body of the site scrolls upwards while the header remains works well here, while I particularly like the transparency of the logo.

Who\'s Guest
Who's Guest is a good example of a portfolio for a graphic designer. The highlighting effect that comes into play as you scroll over each design is very effective at holding your attention. I like the faded photographic background but find the overall alignment of the site doesn't quite work for me.

IWANNABEADESIGNER
A striking site for a user interface and front-end developer. The large slider makes an immediate impact and immerses any visitors into the work of the designer. I like the restrained use of text, such as the bullet point list, as it helps a visitor to grasp the point of the site quickly.

Fool\'s Errand Design
An awesome portfolio site for a freelance designer. The unique approach to layout here is fascinating and works well to get visitors engaged. The entertaining, and slightly tongue in cheek, tagline makes an immediate impact.

Robert Ari
A clean and stylish site for a North London based hairdressers. I like the use of a monochrome scheme for the background, it really helps the photographs to make an impact. I particularly like the intuitive design and how easy it is to grasp what the site is for.

Jorge Riera
A fascinating site for a graphic/web designer. It manages to make you genuinely feel like he's sitting right in front of you. I like the simplicity of the site although some of the sporadic aspects, the 'Like' box for example, can make it feel a little messy.

Florida After Seven
I love how striking the graphic style of this site is. It can't fail to draw you in and further intrigue your creative mind. The typeface is excellent and really makes a strong statement alongside the unique, and surreal, illustrations.

Instagallery
A simple yet extremely effective site for the iPad App Instagallery. The use of the multicoloured strip really helps to make an impact, while the heading makes it instantly clear where you have landed. I particularly like the colour palette used and split background, it helps to break up the content.

Circle
An absurdly restrained and minimal site for a digital marketing company. I like the choice that was made to have the homepage kept as simple as possible, you can immediately see what the company does and then click through for more information.

Wes Bos
A stylish personal blog and portfolio for a web designer and developer. I like the boldness of the background colour, the circular headshot, and the intuitive layout. It's always good when you can garner what the site is for in a couple of seconds!

The City Is Burning
A bold HTML5 site for a web designer that has clearly had a lot of attention given to it. I like impact that the header makes and clear way the site leads you through. A good example of a how a single column layout can work.

Pline Studios
A beautiful, and creative, site for an architectural studio. I love the restrained approach and use of text justification as a feature. The gallery of previous projects works extremely well to give a brief idea of philosophy and style.

Turks & Caicos Sporting Club
A brilliant and superbly effective site for a sporting club in the British West Indies. The large photographic slideshow can't fail to make an immediate impression! The site navigation is stylish but reserved, helping to keep the stunning visuals at centre stage.

In the Lost & Found
A great site for a self confessed 'curious designer'. I really like the framing of the body of the site by a textured header and footer, they add interest but keep the content uncluttered. Using a small gallery of recent projects is a great way to add life to any design based site and immediately draws in any visitors.
