What are the best web-design sites?

Showcase site for beautiful AND functional webdesign?

  • I am looking for websites showcasing beautiful webdesign that is not too 'out there'. If I Google for 'great / beautiful webdesign' I mostly get examples of sites that are indeed very beautiful to look at but would never be accepted by the sort of clients I work for (mostly small business owners that need their website to communicate the info on their products very clearly - i.e. they are not artists or brands that are just out to project a cool image). So I guess I am looking for examples of excellent webdesign for relatively boring sites.

  • Answer:

    http://www.mediaqueri.es is technically "about" "responsive" design but there are some really good looking informational/business pages displayed.

Minus the boring part, of course!

How plain are we talking? http://www.commarts.com/webpicks showcases a lot of real world design. Searching "web templates" is a good way to find nice, inoffensive, generic layouts but some of the sites can be shady so watch out.

I happen to think our website is fantastic (not designed by me) and we're in financial services, so it's fairly boring stuff. Our clients and peers are all shocked/thrilled etc by the site, which was part of the point - designing something that reflected who we are rather than the industry that we're in. (I'm not trying to self-promote here, I really love the website.) Here's the link: http://www.frontshore.com.

Some really great suggestions so far. I'll add a few more: these tend to be a little heavier in process, analysis, and design philosophy:http://uninvitedredesigns.com/ is a showcase site for just that; handy from the perspective of comparing what a site is like now to the proposed changes.A proposed http://www.fastcodesign.com/1670245/a-students-smart-microsoft-rebranding-is-better-than-the-real-thing#4.http://www.wikipediaredefined.com/http://rainypixels.com/words/the-story-of-the-new-microsoft-com/I hope this helps!
