A few more well-designed sites
A few designs I found appealing, in no particular order…
- http://www.cabedge.com/—Extremely plain, but well suited for what it is. It’s hard to miss the floating clouds and isolated introduction paragraph, which was obviously their intention.
- http://jinabolton.com/—This one is for the logo pretty much… I think it [the logo] is awesome.
- http://oaktreecreative.com/—All around great design. I love the white strip through the middle. And while it’s somewhat of a trend, I’m partial to the “one concise sentence to explain what we do” idea.
- http://www.rikcatindustries.com/—It’s a common misconception that color is required for art/designs to be appealing, but I think this site proves otherwise (as does black & white photography).
- http://www.blogonize.com/—It sort of has that “blogger” feel to it, which in a way gets old, but in a way is still nice.
- http://www.positionlab.co.uk/—The upper half of this site is what draws me in. The colors blend well and it’s kind of cool that they used a topographic map background to play off of their slogan. Simple and clean always works.
- http://9rules.com/—I love the 9rules leaf. I don’t really think of 9rules as a social network, but I guess it is. Anyway, I enjoy the main page design.
- http://www.turncolor.com/—This is another case of brown and blue and how well it works. There’s hardly anything to this site, but I think it’s a perfect blend of color. I love the “scratchiness” of the header, and the contact form is awesome. It’s hard to believe brown can be so inspirational.
UPDATE
