I like the imagery used in this design, even though there just might be a little too much of the fire visual, I really like it. It's well done and the texture that gives to the rest of the site is much needed. I also like the large images used ... More -

First things first, the portal page needs some attention. I understand keeping it quick but it doesn't carry over the small design consistencies that the two sites share. I think it's interesting that instead of trying to continue the large photo backgrounds on the homepage they have chosen to stop ... More -

Pretty cool website concept, the super oversized image of the wine bottle is nice looking and makes me really want a taste... What's here is the call to action is a little grayed out button with "browse" as the name on it. This loads a sort of tool-tip navigation ... More -

It can be hard to articulate why a design is good, or why it just works. A great design like this just is. All of the things that make this site successful are so small, so subtle as to go almost unnoticed. To start with, the type is perfectly chosen ... More -

I love these colors, these dark browns and orange are really great together. Plus robots are cool and this guy draws some awesome Transformers. The design looks like an altered template from one of these guy's templates. But, that's fine by me, in this instance together this is a pretty ... More -
Basecamp Site Review
I've been wanting to pick apart the basecamphq.com website for some time now. And recently while working on our own sign up process and form designs for some upcoming unmatchedstyle expansions I spent a good deal of time really digging through many of the top web application or sales based ...

joyent.com
Joyent's site is minimal and fresh. The limited use of color and perfectly laid out type really make successful. I can't imagine the type being chosen and laid out any better. It's plain old Lucida Grande, but there's something about it that just fits this site. The spacing and font ... More
