Portuguese web designer Ricardo Mestre calls Duplos his "web thingie". I call it a masterpiece. It really is. The site is basically one big animated poster. It's super beautiful, quite unusual (for a website) and surprisingly intuitive to grasp. The animated details work really well.

The Norwegian Gateway College, located across the globe, recently got a sweet profile + site design courtesy of Creuna. The folding letters and numbers are superb. The same goes for the rest of this sweet package. Lovely stuff from Norway. Sorry, Norwegian language only. However, you may translate the site with Google Translate. Via Webdesignmagasinet.

I'm selling colors, the tagline for Adhemas Batista's portfolio site is very fitting. His work makes powerful use of bold colors often combined with abstract or almost psychedelic shapes and imagery. I've been so lucky to have had the joy of relying on his services a few years ago, and can attest to his mad skills. His portfolio was last showcased here on Styleboost in 2006, but was recently redesigned.

The official website of WonderWall/Masamichi Katayama with assistance from the one and only Yugo Nakamura. I'm amazed by the way this site manages to be both playful and interesting, while at the same time making the information readable and browsable. It's a lot of fun to use.

This concept behind this website is very simple and quite obvious. I think the fact that it's so obvious in combination with the implementation makes this a really great site. Impressive for sure.

This portfolio site is such an inspirational work to behold. The bold color scheme works wonders for their showcased work. The grid is flawless and the typography tops off this masterpiece.

The 365 Days of Astronomy Podcast is a project that will publish one podcast per day, for all 365 days of 2009. The podcast episodes are written, recorded and produced by people around the world. They definitely did something extra with the design of this one-year blog. It's very unusual for science related sites to look this good.

Tim van Damme was one of the hottest web designers of 2008, and a couple of weeks ago he launched his redesigned blog. With a color scheme to die for and a layout to kill for, it's impossible to deny the droolworthyness of this blog. Spot on, if you ask me.

"Time tracking rethought." With a tagline like that, I expect a lot from a service like this. After trying it out for a little while (not nearly enough), my impression is that this is a solid service both functionality-wise and design-wise. I'm an avid user of Tick, but the delicious design of Freckle makes me wish that the Tick team gives the site a similar realignment in the future. Freckle has an exquisite color scheme, elegant interface interactivity details (js) and oozes of love. What a refreshing site. Even if you're not interested in a Time tracking app, you should sign up for a free account just to play with the interface.
