5 Successful Business Website Designs & Their Designers

White Wash House by LOGO

Visit their parent site White House

Why White Wash House?

+ One of the most creative navigation solutions I’ve seen in a long time
+ Smooth and appropriate transitions between pages
+ Extremely visual – great product close-ups and online shopping experience
+ Successful shopping checkout; easy to use and well branded within the rest of the website

Why LOGO?

+ Impressed by the great atmosphere their designers get to work in!

+ Great idea to have a simple form for their potential clients to fill out and in return they will receive a more detailed design brief right away. Very helpful for both ends !
+ I really enjoy the property tab to highlight their specialty niche in the design world

Remedy Coffee by Third + Grand

Why Remedy Coffee?

+ Attractive headers with simple, elegant color/heading changes across different pages.
+ Uniquely shaped footer, reflecting the logo’s shape. Nicely done.
+ Great use of white space. Consistent throughout the site.
+ Well organized color coated calendar. Easy to find what your interested in.

Why Third + Grand?

+ Straight-forward, truthful web design company
+ New favorite design quote,

“Remember, you can get a haircut at Fantastic Sam’s for $8.00 or at the salon for $140.00. Same basic idea, much different results.”

Not all customers are looking for a fabulous website, and many are looking for a great website at a cheap price. Sometimes, you get what you pay for! Third & Grand really puts their best foot forward, giving potential clients a lot of information up-front without even having to contact them.

Bertoldi’s by Insite Design

Why Bertoldi’s

+ Flawless combination of illustration, photography and typography. All extremely unique and in-line with the brand.
+ Beautiful color palette; vibrant and lush.
+ Check out the Masottina room; Showcases their emphasis on family

Why Insite Design?

+ Originality & attention to minute details
+ Focused in the wine business – showcasing their expertise in a particular niche
+ Unique designs – they aren’t just following the crowd and web 2.0 feel which is refreshing!
+ Stunning illustrations – if you are looking for more artistic designs check them out!

Frontier Room by Urban Influence

Why Frontier Room?

+ Pure fun & easy to use!
+ Extremely creative tid-bits, like the pulling the cow’s tail to send in a stampede! Try it if you haven’t yet under the menu tab
+ Successful copywriting
+ Unique contact page / email sign-up – all integrated well to fit the site’s look and feel

Why Urban Influence?

+ Results Page: Great way to prove to potential clients that their designs are successful and can help your business
+ They tell you their story and their passion shows through in the explanation of what they love to do. It’s great when you can see how much a company cares about what they are doing, not always up-front on every designer’s site.
+ Smooth page transitions on their site, along with simple & effective animations to add a little zest to the user experience – well done!

Boys & Girls Clubs of the Twin Cites by Catalyst Studios

Why Boys & Girls Clubs of the Twin Cities?
+ Fits the client’s purpose and mission to a “t” – design focused on kids. We see this through the little details such as: tape holding page sections up (not literally :P) notebook paper accents and scribbles throughout the website.
+ Read my story windows on homepage – neat scroll bars!
+ Consistent section layout on each page – gives the user a sense of what to expect in particular areas

Why Catalyst Studios?

+ I visited their studio last year and their website reflects the same personality I saw then – their studio has green walls, and many playful aspects to it. Great job branding overall!
+ Their about us page is fab! They showcase their team individually which makes the design experience personal
+ Using sticky notes, Catalyst allows their visitors to leave them messages and place them wherever they feel the need to chat :) I left one this morning while writing this! Hope they checkout their review
+ On the homepage, they change up the feature project to make each visit to their website a fresh and fun experience
