Hello all! And welcome to January’s portfolio roundup. There will be a lot to appreciate about each portfolio listed here, so why not grab a coffee and browse through some of the best sites that are new display design work. You’ll find a few of the most exciting designers working away in studios throughout the world, every one of who possess posted or updated their profile in current months.
Andrea D. Labarile
This one is all in Italian, but don’t allow that scare you down. Heck, the very fact I don’t speak is a testament to the usability of the site that it’s easily navigable in a language that. It’s simple, stylish, memorable, and it has great UX.
I can’t ask for much more.
Umwelt
Things that look simple often aren’t. In Umwelt’s case, what looks like a simple, if stunning, series of images is portfolio navigation that is actually subtle. It isn’t, nevertheless, delicate sufficient become confusing.
The vertically-centered text that changes based on which project viewing that is you’re a fantastic touch, in my opinion. That animated text provides some of the guidance a user needs to navigate the desktop version of the site, and it looks great.
Colin Grist
There are quite a few superb examples of extreme minimalism, and just how pretty it can look on the web. Colin Grist’s portfolio should definitely be added to that list. Its rigidly layout that is grid-based coupled with a lot of white room, allows the designer’s work do all of the speaking.
Maria De Los Angeles Guardia
Maria De La Guardia’s website appears good, works good, a complete lot like most of the other sites on this list. What made it stand out is the way she mixes blog entries into the portfolio with her visual work.
And why shouldn’t she? It’s design-related), maybe you should add it to your portfolio if you’ve written something you’re proud of (and. Most likely, your profile is meant to show that which you understand. There’s no reason not to ever accomplish that using the word that is written as well as imagery.
The Charles NYC
The Charles NYC features fantastic typography, a mostly monochromatic theme (their work provides the only color on any given page), smooth animation, and style that is unmistakable. This 1 is here now simply because it is pretty to check at.
Still maybe not a fan of pre-loaders, though.
Ostmodern
Ostmodern Many people have actually reported on how design that is flat looks “the same”. One reason for that sentiment, I think, is the proliferation of common color schemes.
While Ostmodern’s design does use some of the tones that are desaturated come to learn and love/hate, they’re combined with the bolder, brighter colors of television. Ostmodern does lots of work with television, to ensure that fits, thematically talking.
Swallows and Damsons
Swallows and Damsons could be the profile of a arrangement company that is floral. I didn’t count, but I doubt there are thirty words in the UI that is whole content come up with. We don’t see this as an issue. Exactly what are you gonna say about flower plans? “Uhhh… they’re really, REALLY pretty, therefore please get them?”
This is one destination where permitting photos do all of the sales work is a idea that is great and the designer’s made it work.
Studio Rodrigo
Studio Rodrigo’s site is one of those that adapts extremely well to screen that is large in addition to little. If you wish to learn to make fairly smaller amounts of information and text look good on an HD screen, look to these guys for an example.
Centered columns are so three years ago… apparently.
Molamil
Molamil is an interesting case, aesthetically. It combines “fancy” typography with illustrations and photography to create a design that feels both professional, and deeply personal.
It Gives the sense that members of the agency are social and smart. Generous Store|The Generous Store to their work” class=”synonym”>The Generous Store to their work and Pass It On would seem to support that idea.
James Tupper
I am always impressed by people who seem to put their personality into a page’s design. After seeing James Tupper’s personal portfolio, I feel it would be like to work with him like I have some small idea of what. Now If only we had the reason that is money/a do just that.
SFCD
SFCD is an agency that specializes in making apps. Instead of relying on a screenshot in a photo of an iPhone (they do have a few of those), a ton is put by them of work within their website, also it shows. Simply take, for instance, the smooth, fancy animations that don’t extremely distract through the content, great typography, and great work.
Fable & Co.
Honestly, you should go have a look at Fable & Co. for the typography alone. Don’t misunderstand me, all of those other design is excellent too, however the means they designed that text makes me desire to read it simply because it is pretty.
Richards Lovers
Richards Partners is another great website proper whom really loves a layout that is full-screen. Get ready for a lot more of them in the future, because Flexbox is making that sort of thing a lot easier.
OrangeYouGlad
OrangeYouGlad is exactly as bright and colorful as the name might suggest. A lot of great illustration and painting that is digital blended in to the design. Plus, the hamburger-based (the type with buns, maybe not three lines) design for the profile part is form of inspired.
Pat Kay
Pat Kay’s portfolio is an excellent exemplory case of just how screen-height web page parts can be achieved. It’s sad
Atulesh|it’s actually pretty great.
Atulesh that it makes the mistake of hijacking my scroll wheel, like so many other layouts of its kind, but other wise” class=”synonym”>it’s actually pretty great.
Atulesh that it makes the mistake of hijacking my scroll wheel, like so many other layouts of its kind, but other wise Kumar
Atulesh Kumar has taken what would be an otherwise layout that is fairly standard and managed to get look great with consideration to information. it is simply plain good to check out, and that’s a quality that otherwise serviceable sites usually lack.
R Style
Something about the looks of this site remind me personally for the past, in a way that is good. Like, this is what we were trying to accomplish with our Photoshop-sliced table layouts, but we didn’t know how, yet.
The site uses a variety of modern techniques, like background animation, and yet still retains a sort of old-school futurist feel with the typography, color choices, and that photo that is cut-out of designer. it is like an website that is old right, inspiring an odd sense delight in me.
Bakken & Baeck
I suppose it’s official, Monospace fonts are back in fashion, at least to some degree. I’m not complaining. It’s a bit that is nice of. It nevertheless takes some work to pull it well without searching like you’re trying too much, but that’s all simply the main challenge.
Bakken & Baeck manages quite nicely, making use of monospace fonts for the text within their profile of startups. Yeah. A portfolio… of organizations they built or assisted to create.
My just grievance about it visual is that sometimes it is too minimal. We suggest, there’s an input industry in the web page, but I’d to learn some in-page directions to determine where it had been.
Fakepaper
Those lovely monochromatic, grid-centric designs through the beginning of online minimalism have actuallyn’t gone anywhere. They’ve just gotten responsive. And prettier. Fakepaper makes use of this visual beautifully, while maintaining it usable. White backgrounds and lines that are black everyone!
Carl Kleiner
Carl Kleiner, sadly, hides all of his navigation behind a button (like a few other sites on the list). What I like, though, is the approach he took with his portfolio. One image per section, and each image gets its background that is own color. Since plenty of portfolios don’t even demonstrate that much art way, it generates this profile one thing of an anomaly.
Armand Biteau(Armand Biteau’s site|*******************************************************)( that is******************************************************)(” class=”synonym”>*******************************************************)( that is******************************************************)( is simple, modern, aesthetically pleasing. There is the issue that is small of proven fact that, whenever you land in the webpage, you could lose an additional or two of the time finding their profile. You then don’t feel therefore smart once you understand at it.
Still that you’re looking right
, once you figure out the somewhat brok… ahem unconventional navigation of this site, there’s a lot about its construction to appreciate. It’s reminiscent of a computer that is sci-fi (or game user interface) while nevertheless searching elegant, and doing well.
This Also
This Also could be somewhat confusing in the beginning, because they’ve put project names appropriate into the navigation that is main. That’s the adjustment that is only make. All of those other website is pure, Google-inspired minimalism. I’m pretty safe in stating that they’re encouraged by Bing, because they’ve done a couple of of jobs for the technology giant.
We Are Fellows
We Are Fellows Takes the basic idea of putting their work on their home page rather seriously. It is put by the all here. With plenty of reasonably little thumbnails.
I wouldn’t advocate this process for all, however in their situation, it generates a image that is rather striking. They’ve clearly done plenty of great work, and you will see some of it close with a click.
