Here's a designer clothing site from Serbia with some nice details in the navigation. Notice the way the items in the navigation become active as the images progressively are preloaded one after another. I'm not 100% in love with all the choices made in the design, but it looks stunning and has a slick implementation of various levels of navigation. Kudos to Nikola Arezina for pulling it off with such class.

Among the first batch of premium Tumblr themes which were just launched, I found this gem. Simplefolio is a slick theme that easily lets you host your portfolio on Tumblr. Sweet concept and gorgeous design by MetaLab.

Lift's website is one of the most detailed and graphics-intensive single page portfolio sites I've come across. I love the attention they paid to the most minute details, truly gorgeous. And the work displayed is good stuff all across the board. Basically, this site oozes of quality.

Rogie King's Komodo Media site is not exactly brand new. That has never stopped me from posting a great site here on Styleboost in the past. And Rogie's very pixel anal site is looking better than ever. In fact it has recently got an amazing "foliage-o-meter" in the right column which dazzles. Definitely a feature to check out and be inspired by. Via @dburka.

Basically, this site is outstanding because of the choice of technology. I would not have posted this site here on Styleboost had it been made with Flash. That is not to say it's a bad or boring design. It's not. I like it a lot. But it's also a design that is made in the spirit of a lot of traditional portfolio sites made with Flash, if you catch my drift. And I'm sure a lot of webdesigners will be interested in seeing how this has been implemented using CSS, HTML and JavaScript. Kudos to Appear.

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.

Robbin and Waldemar are just about to complete the concept-driven Interactive Art Direction course at Hyper Island, and they're looking for an internship. As you can see from the work showcased in their cute, hand-drawn portfolio, they sure have the skills. Impressive, clean and still has a lot of personality.

I stumbled upon this out of the ordinary portfolio on Kitsune Noir a couple of days ago. I'm usually not a sucker for big splash images and intricate ways of entering a portfolio, but this one is just too damn beautiful. All in all, it's a great portfolio with some wonderful work in it. Nick de Jardine definitely has done a wonderful job. But I think the navigation may be too difficult to figure out for non-webdesigners. Am I wrong?

Samuel Räikkönen is young and Finnish with an excellent mind for design projects of many sorts. His portfolio is filled with loveliness and is very tastefully put together. This design truly makes use of the format of a single page portfolio, as the projects are all so easily accessible while still having enough images to get a real look at the work he's done.

North Kingdom are probably most famous for their incredible Flash campaign sites. At least that's how I got to know them. Their own portfolio site, however, is built with HTML5, CSS and JavaScript with wonderful results. It's a lightweight, easily navigated portfolio type site that's a pleasure to use. It's beautiful and highly usable without being flashy (no pun intended).
