The latest iteration of Virb's visual design is downright fantastic. And I'm actually surprised, because this is — as far as I know – the first design process at Virb that hasn't been led by Ryan Sims. The Virb team has once again done an amazing job that positions Virb as the most droolworthy CMS in this crowded field.

The world of food recipe sites is a very crowded playing field, and that is why I love Gojee's approach to design. Lead designer Adam Meisel has taken a bold approach by focusing on huge photos to entice food lovers. There are also other innovative aspects to the design, like the "I crave..." feature in the top bar. My only gripe with the site is that it could be even faster to browse.

It's no surprise that when legendary web designer Bryan Veloso is getting married to his beautiful fiancé Jennifer Verduzco, his wedding website is designed with great care. As always with Bryan's work, the colors, textures, typography and graphics are beautifully crafted down to the very last detail. Also, I think the the "Honeyfund" is superb. Congrats!

The latest redesign of EA's historically slow and "chunky" site is a huge success. They have managed to make it feel elegant and responsive without compromise. The great use of whitespace and a fast stack are probably the main contributors to this. If I was John Riccitiello I would be very happy with how this site turned out.

iPhone app teaser websites come a dime a dozen. iPhone app teaser websites of this calibre however are much, much harder to come by. Scrolling this site is so enjoyable that I think it's right to compare it to the spectacular and very successful Ben the Bodyguard site. Seldom has a small project like developing a teaser site been turned into such a wonderful result. Great work by Image Mechanics.

Nokia rarely does anything that catches my eye. But with the launch of the MeeGo/Qt powered N9 I have realized that the Finnish company is actually able to "get" some of what's wrong with their usual lineup of phones. In fact, what I found most impressive with the launch was the very well done UX Guidelines site. This looks to be a great tool for UX designers looking to build apps for the N9. Well done, Nokia.

There's no denying that Paul Kelley aka Ch3mical has made himself a great single page portfolio site. He pulls it off by combining a straight forward text based presentation with a very clever presentation of external links. Via @ozlarsen.

Here's a goodie. A superbad single page portfolio site that is basically designed as an interactive poster. The typography and colors throughout, as well as the calls to action are all so well designed that you would be stupid not to be impressed. Check it out.

Kurppa Hosk is an interdisciplinary brand and design consultancy based in Stockholm. Their brand new portfolio site is truly slick. Not much more to say than that this is well worth a closer look.

Not only has Orman Clark created a wonderful resource for other designers, it is also very beautifully presented. Great stuff all around.
