Miralize
A nice bold design with lots of big elements. Normally I would not be crazy about using all caps through the entire site but it works well here with the bold condensed font.

EIght Hour Day is a design and illustration studio with a unique and attractive body of work. I love the illustration style found all over the website and their work. The choice of typography and colors is spot on and provides a great compliment to the images.

Bright color and bold typography make this design a definite winner. I love the unique idea for displaying the services being offered and the large social links at the bottom.

Favela
A nice minimal design with a heavy emphasis on the work being displayed. The page was designed using the 960.gs and has a super tight alignment that really gives it that clean and modern feel.

Chris Kinsey
This site is the portfolio of designer and student Chris Kinsey. The mixture of bold condensed and script fonts in the headline is a really nice combination. I also like the color scheme and the refreshingly different layout of the thumbnails and descriptions.

Grey Ang
This site uses a bold color spectrum and some nice but subtle particle animations in the background. I like the simplicity of the typography-centric design and how the content fades out and in when you switch pages.

Cloverock Design
This site uses attractive typography and bold contrast as the main features of the aesthetic style. I like the rough painted edge of the header and the mixture of old style and slab serif typography.

The layout is basically a simple grid of thumbnails but I really like how the designer styled it. The thumbnail treatments is really nice and I like the oddly thin column of images on the textured background.

This site features a really clean and professional design and plenty of high quality photography. I really like the navigation area with the pop out hover effects. The lightly textured background is also a nice touch.

Traxor Designs
Usually we feature the header of a site but I found the lower content to be much more interesting here. I love the arrangement of the typography and the old style illustrations on the textured background. It definitely gives the site a book feel that I would like to see accomplished in the header.

Mix & Mash
This site has a wonderfully unique design that plays heavily on the title and uses a ribbon coming out of a blender as a banner for text. I love the color scheme, original concept and slight background animations.

Outmarked
This site features some beautiful typographical artwork that has a cool depth of field illusion. Notice how heavily the designer uses contrast to grab your attention in both the header, main image, and dark inset type.

Webexpo
A nice looking site with an interesting mixture of structured and organic design. There is an overall theme revolving around a jagged squiggly line graphic that is repeated in different ways throughout the page.

A really unique looking portfolio with vertical rectangle samples and intense color. The design of this site is quite bold and even features an alternate style accessible via a button in the navigation. An interesting and fun idea!
