Some weeks ago I published 20 Amazing UI/UX Web Designs, where I talked about the importance of minimalism (in color and layout), neatness and one clear message (like business cards).
Lately I’ve been working a lot on corporate web design (check #3) and summarizing what a company is, believe me, it’s no easy task. For that reason, today I am focusing on this topic. Each of these examples did a pretty good job on this aspect, all are fast and effortless to understand. And beautiful.
Hope you find these designs inspiring for your future web site. What are your thoughts about them?

I went through each selection. I’m not sure what feedback you want so will just comment. I like a website that is easy to move around in and easy to find your way and not have to click randomly to get back to GO. Some of these I did get lost in. But then I get lost in the WP Dashboard. lol
My favorite one was Real Heroines probably because I was interested in the subject. It is attractive and the intent or purpose is readily seen. The pages are uniform and the extra links are a plus. I bookmarked and will continue reading.
I also liked the Numbers Project. It was fun playing with the interactive.

Thanks so much for all of your comments! Hopefully some of the designers will read this too!
Those are two of my favorites. The heroines project is really cool, isn’t it? In addition, the layout and color makes it very user friendly. On the other hand, I loved playing with the interactive part of the “number”, it could be much more complicated to explain what they do. I imagine somebody trying to put all the text in the world to explain what it is, instead, this visual interface makes it easy!

Your are welcome. They were all very interesting. Sometimes it seems designers get carried away with the designs and forget what the purpose of the sites are. We want to get in and out of a site asap. lol Some of the designs might possibly belong in an Art Gallery where we can stroll and enjoy leisurely. 🙂

I agree with you, sometimes it’s difficult to use certain sites due to its “creativity”. I often find it impossible to get the contact on the web site, which is probably one of the most important things. Maybe in the future we’ll be able to see these designs in an art gallery 😀

The one that stands out for me is Real Heroines. Clear and easy. The drawings remind me of the illustrations in my childhood books.

I really like that project- besides having a very intuitive website. The illustrations are nice, aren’t they? I’d heard about a famous photographer who took pictures of her daughter dressed as many of these women http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/the-upbeat/photographer-dresses-daughter-five-heroines-celebrate-her-fifth-225613273.html

I love the way the heroines blink; makes them seem very real. The link is wonderful. If that had been me I would chosen Helen Keller and Florence Nightingale and Madame Curie. Those were the women I knew as a child. But there were/are so many more heroines.

Hopefully they’ll add more heroines in the future. I’d also add modern heroines such as Sheryl Sandberg, she is an amazing woman 🙂

Yes, heroines don’t need to be confined to history. They can be among us here and now.

love your round-up. i’ve always loved the Ted brand and design; it is especially difficult designing a website around a ‘dry’ subject matter. at least as architects/designers we can use lots of pretty pictures.. 🙂
i have just launced a new business and website, so have been researching heavily too. another fave is the Paint Box one – bold and beautiful.

Jane! Good to see you here. I agree that it’s easy for us architects to use beautiful images related to the subject hehe and love the Paint Box one, it serves its purpose amazingly in my opinion. Is your new website your blog? Share a link 🙂

Jane, I just had a more in depth look to your new website. Congrats on the result, it’s very well designed: clean, not too much text and well organized. Just one comment:
– The “About” section looks very dense in terms of text, maybe a two-column distribution and an image will make it “more friendly”.
Hope this helps, and congratulations for the great job you did 🙂

Love to see all your favorite minimalism design websites here. They are all great and perfect for a classy look. I wonder if you have tried another design aside from minimalism? Appreciate if you response to this. Thanks!

Hello Dani, thanks for stopping by! I must admit I am against “dense” web design, it makes it very confusing in most cases, so the answer is no. All the websites featured in my blog are somehow minimalist. What do you think? Do you know any non minimalist designs that did a good job?
