DesignJunction.com.au is a web development company based in Australia. They have made quite a few impressive designs and logos.

Their website uses brown and creme colors to create a professional layout. A lot of white space to keep things clean and easy to navigate, and a few icons here and there to support the text. All of this combined, and you get a pretty impressive website.

Chris K. Jennings works as a UI Designer and Developer at Scrapblog in Miami, and has setup his blog to write about his “adventures and achievements” in freelance development.

His blog looks very fresh, with the use of what I call “spring colors”; bright and happy. The navigation is setup with vertical tabs at the top, and make it easy to navigate through the site. Check out his website, he has a catchy writing style.

Since we discuss artwork on this website, ShinyBinary.com is certainly welcome here. It is the portfolio overview of Nik Ainley, an illustrator from the UK.

While it is not really a website, it does feature some great works. A perfect example of great graphics and talent!

For all Adobe Illustrator users here: Vectips.com is for you! The website is dedicated to Illustrator tips, tricks and tutorials and created by Ryan Putnam (a.k.a. Rype). Ryan also runs Rypearts.com, his personal website, including his portfolio.

Back to Vectips. The site has a clean look, and crates a fresh impression. The main menu items are located on the top left, accompanied with big icons to make it easy to spot and navigate. The posts are setup with a lot of space between them, and make it feel light and easy to read. Certainly worth a visit if you are a designer.

Komodomedia.com is a website made by Rogie King, and is well known amongst the bloggers. He has won several prizes already, and he keeps on improving his website. Make sure to check the “foliage-o-meter” on the right side, this let’s you control the amount of foliage on the website, nice touch!

Rogie writes articles about his source of inspiration and experiments with web technology. You will find some great freebies on the site as well, like icons and usable graphics. Overall it’s a great site to get some inspiration from.

WebdesignerDepot.com (called WDD) is a platform to showcase the latest trends in graphical and design techniques. The weblog itself is a collaboration between some of the best experts in the field. This includes programming, typography, graphical, writing and much more.

The website stats a bold header with a lot of creativity put into it. Next to that we see a few Apple products in there, which still seem to be linked to graphical artists and designers. Make sure to check out the site, it contains a ton of useful stuff and inspiration.

Dino Latoga is a fan of HTML and CSS valid websites (with good reason!), and creates them perfectly. His website is based around the color brown, and looks very professional and calm.

Also check out his content, he writes articles filled with tips and examples of jQuery usage, themes for blogging engines, web design inspiration and much, much more. Though his portfolio only shows a few works of him, you can tell he loves creating websites.

Today we take a look at lebloe.com, a grungy looking website with a lot of blue. The website is a showcase Gustavo Rodriguez, a graphical designer from Colombia, but currently living in Montrèal, Canada.

The layout is pretty basic, navigation and other blog elements on the right side, and the content on the left. What makes this site so amazing, is the background artwork. It’s hard to describe, so take a look for yourself to get the impression. Furthermore he has some nice artwork in his portfolio, certainly worth a look!

This website is probably something you haven’t seen before. It’s a big graphic, and the site makes use of it all. Thomas Pojeta made an image starting at the darker part of the sky; space, and goes all the way from air to land to sea to underwater.

First of all, this is without a doubt a very original idea to show your own work. Second, his artwork is amazing. He came up with the idea, made up his mind about the layout, and just made it look beautiful. Take a look for the full experience.

The only downside is the lack of English text. He does offer an English button at the top right of the page, but it’s a basic translation of the content showing on the screen.

Since we are trying to create a collection to provide inspiration, this website is a must. AListApart.com is a very minimalistic website, with a lot of information on it. The main focus was providing information without too much graphics around to distract the reader.

The website consists of articles targeting “people who make websites”. The main topics are about typography on the web, usability, user-friendliness of the layout and things to consider when making a website. It is fun to read, and you will learn a lot on the way.
