aktúa
Submitted by Vanesa Gazze, @vanesagazze Designer & Developer. Aktua is a non-profit green organization that works in Argentina and Spain. Their aim is to inform society about actual environmental problems. Enjoyable "green" feeling to this design. I like the elements that seem hand made and life-like. The badges down the right ...

Version-X Design
This is a re-design of our website moving from an all-Flash format to a ExpressionEngine driven site. The focus was on making a clean, highly usable site. Really nice bold typography to go along with a clean minimal feeling website. I really like the details in things like the buttons and ... More -

Nice clean well organized layout, reminds me of the swiss school of design. This style of layout isn't anything new by far, I just happen to like this one and the twist it has with the dark brown background and light blue color used for highlighting certain elements ... More -

Submitted by Ryan Johnson, @ryanjohnson_me. Designer & Developer. I'm still not sold on the "single page layout" style of websites, this one works pretty well though. The navigation follows you as you scroll down the page, I've seen that before and it seems like the best way to keep the ... More -

DevBridge V3.0
Submitted by Aurimas Adomavicus, Designer & Developer. The pseudo-3d elements on this site are really great. It makes it fairly memorable and that's something every design should strive for to be considered great. The portfolio, or case studies, section is clever in how the logos of the clients are ...

blackestate.co.nz
This is a compelling single page "long scrolling" site design. I think the dark black background is kind of played out for a wine site, but I love the big bold typography and the way things feel offset yet still balanced. The very bottom of the page, the ... More -
Ivan Akimov
Neat experimental design here. I don't like the click and drag to scroll to the right to see the content concept at all for client level production websites, but I love the fact that it's on his personal site and he's experimenting and pushing the limit on usability with his ... More
