I love the combination of a boxy grid-based design and great product photos in use at the Unit Portables site. You immediately get the feeling that their products are genuinely unique. However, my favorite part of the design is the way they have pulled the color of the main products displayed on the homepage onto the box below. It works especially well with the strong red and blue bags. Nice touch! Via @tomcavill.

It seems that Nest is all the rage today, so why not just post it on Styleboost as well? In all seriousness it looks like a damn fine product — that is accompanied by an equally fine website. It does a great job of making us all drool over a thermostat, of all things.

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.

Mavic is a french manufacturer of high-end bike systems and rider’s equipment. The site demands very high bandwidth, but the reason for this is the fact that they're showing off very high quality close-ups of their products. This is exactly the right thing to do in a situation such as this. They are selling expensive gear to pros and high-end enthusiasts who are likely to be very picky and therefore very interested in knowing exactly what they buy. I also love that they've put the logo at the bottom right.

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.
