Jesse Bennett-Chamberlain just launched a redesigned website for world class piano makers Steinway & Sons. Simply put this site is delicate, elegant and beautifully executed. Jesse has written a blog post about the process.

Un.titled has done a great job with the Meos site. I'm very impressed with how they manage to combine straightforward techniques and very few effects into such a brilliant piece of design. Excellent layout and use of images. Also, love the subnavigation.

This is not the first time I'm extremely impressed with the design of Joyent's website. Once again they manage to pull off a great website redesign. And make no mistake, this is no realignment. This is a huge leap. Truly beautiful with great information architecture and readability.

Philips went overboard when they created this campaign site for their latest 21:9 aspect ratio TV. I think the idea of making an original short film to show off the 21:9 aspect ratio is wonderful. The execution is even better. World class!

Checkout is the powerful, easy to use point of sale system for the Mac. Use Checkout to take orders, make sales, print invoices and accept payments. Not only does the product look interesting, but the site sure makes the product stand out as both easy to use and look very professional. This is how it should be done.

Nokia's attempt at an eco-phone seems like a joke to me. They're bragging about low power chargers, no needless paint, eco-friendly materials, etc. In my humble opinion the main thing they could, and should, do to become a greener company, is to make their phones last a lot longer. Instead they're trying to make them last less than a year. Corporate social responsibility, my ass. Now when I got all that off my chest, I'd like to point out that I think the campaign site accompanying this new phone is sweet. Very well done and made me want to learn more about this phone.

While Apple's hardware has been looking sweeter and sweeter with each year passing, the company's online presence has become more and more stale over the past few years. This week they finally decided to give the site a major overhaul. And what a redesign it is. Making use of slick javascript effects all over, including on a site search that surpasses anything I've ever seen anywhere, period, this site is a marvel of web design/development.

Taking on the role of Nike recently, Microsoft has started delivering some of the most exciting Flash sites on the web. They're all very different and very creative and makes great use of the capabilites of Flash. If you're going to use Flash, you should go all the way like they're doing with this site. I also think they're taking the cheesy color scheme of Vista in a good direction with Surface.

As much as I'm waiting for the PS3 launch here in Norway in March, I still have to give some credit to Nintendo for the job they've done with the Wii. And I'm not only talking about what they've done with the console itself. Most of all, I'm impressed with how they're marketing this product. From the get-go, they've made Sony's Playstation 3 look like an arrogant, stuck-up moron. I'm not buying a Wii, I'm buying a PS3. But at the same time, I'm loving Nintendo's delicate XHTML/CSS + Flash website. The PS3 website, on the other hand, is different story.

Chris Erickson's snappy Flash portfolio is filled to the rim with sparkling ideas, designs, illustrations and more. At the same time, the navigation is so smooth and delicate that I can only say two thumbs up two Chris for sharing this beauty with the web.
