If you're into fancy, experimental interfaces, Nikola Arežina and Ina Rančić perfectly executed this web based fashion collection showroom without the use of Flash. They also had good help from the beautiful clothes and photos. The color scheme is amazing.

The use of whitespace and colors on Five Simple Steps' website is drop dead gorgeous. The grid in the design is wonderfully implemented and it's really impossible to resist the sudden urge to buy a book or two.

Outstanding professional portfolio site for a small non-profit team building big (free & open-source) things. I love the textures, the colors, the typography and all the little details. Via Dribbble.

Jon Hicks just redesigned his journal/blog as a fluid site. Motivated by Ethan Marcotte’s excellent article for A List Apart Responsive Web Design, Jon has definitely done an impressive job. Make sure to resize your browser to see how it folds, bends and adapts.

Besides having a great name, this web agency also has one of the most eye-catching hand drawn sites on the web. Via Drawar.

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.

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?

One of my all time favorite web designers finally steps out of the dark caverns of Facebook and into the daylight to draw some fresh air - and at the same time manage to redesign his personal site. All I can say, is wow. I am left speechless by the way he has turned his site around. The individual background images of the blog posts/articles combined with the stripped down interface make for one of the best blog designs I've ever seen. Rob also use's Typekit with great success.

Frank Chimero is an illustrator and graphic designer based in Missouri. Frank also runs a blog called Questionable Characters with the esteemed Ben Barry. Frank's site is an example to follow. It's basically a combination of static pages (Home & Profile), Tumblr based pages (Blog & Ethos) and a Cargo based Work section. I love how he's mixed all these together and made it so beautiful and readable.
