What’s Nice
The action figure motif is hard to not love. The rest of this one pager is clean with the combo of a grungy wood background and transparent sections. I like the FAQ section which helps explain the design:
If this is a ‘wood’ style website, where is the piece of paper with coffee cup stains on it ?
I tried to go minimalist with this re-design and avoid clique ornamentation like notepads and wrinkled paper with coffee stains.
What’s Nice
Grungy header, wood floor style background and nice details everywhere. Another graphic designer site/blog which showcases their talent. Two menus, the top menu is reminiscent of Pantone color swatches while the left mini menu is reminiscent of a Mac style menu of old.
What’s Nice
Alex Buga’s site combines Web2.0 gradients and fade with some grunge features. Each of the modules have a translucent background that lets you see to the wood background. The sketching at the top and bottom add a bit of grunge look without trying too hard.
