11 Pricing Table Designs That Really Sell
Every SaaS product and subscription website needs a great pricing table. It’s the easiest way to share information with potential buyers and explain the differences in your plans. But with so many websites running pricing tables they can get a little stale. These designs are some of the best I’ve found with fresh trends, color schemes, and a clean experience that encourages user interaction. If yo
20 Best New Portfolio Sites, June 2017
Welcome readers, it’s June, and the Brutalism bug is back. No, really. After disappearing into the phenomenon I called “post-minimalism”, plain old Brutalism seems to be making a comeback. Oh, it’s had a few refinements; good designers would never let their brutalist sites actually look bad. But the underpinnings of the style are definitely there, and present in more than a few of this month’s ent
15 Essential Free Icon Sets
When it comes to web design, and especially UI design, icons play a crucial role. When used properly, icons can enhance almost any website design by adding visual interest and appeal. However, creating icons from scratch every time you start a new project is both time-consuming and impractical. Luckily, the web is full of great resources and you can find plenty of high-quality icons available for
75+ type driven sites
When we talk about the visual elements of a website, we are usually referring to images: photos, illustrations, icons, possibly the UI. What we tend to forget is that text is visual too. It is, after all, the visual representation of the spoken word. And text, just like images, can be beautiful or ugly, intriguing or dull, striking or bland, in appearance. The majority of sites out there use purel
50 creative card UI designs
When I was a kid I was desperate for a Polaroid camera: to be able to take a photo and see it—almost—right away was fantastic to me. With ‘normal’ cameras, you had to wait until you finished the whole film, then you had to take it to get developed, and that could take a week. So, quite often, by the time you got to see your photos, the connection to them was a little more distant. With polaroids,
4 fresh alternatives to the hamburger menu
Some say web design has become boring. Current trends and high-end techniques establish the rules for the creatives, playing a low-down trick on the community. Everyone wants to be in the mainstream, and release products that go viral; it means that a million interfaces are likely to have the same features. Of course, content can save the day. Still, the truth is that a lot of those interfaces are
4 modern background tricks to try out
It seems that, as a constituent of a design, backgrounds live in the shadows; however, that’s not entirely true. In times when CSS only began to make its first steps towards the world conquest, the background had already taken on the role of the main decorative element of the website. Nowadays the situation has not changed drastically. In most cases, it serves as a primary visual driving force tha
The best new portfolio sites, August 2016
Hello readers! This month, the line between web design and art continues to blur as more designers adopt the post-modern aesthetic for their work. The concept of usability continues to gasp for breath. We could call it “post-usable design”, perhaps. This is why I try to feature some of the more normal-but-professional-looking sites in with all of the artsy stuff. But then, these are portfolios. Th
The Best New Portfolio Sites, February 2016
Welcome everyone to February’s portfolio roundup. It’s time to fall in love with all-new work, by all-new designers. Yes, I went there. Dig in, enjoy, and let us know which were your favorites. If you’ve got a portfolio that you’d like to submit for next month’s roundup, write to the author at ezequiel@webdesignerdepot.com. Note: I’m judging these sites by how good they look to me. If they’re crea
The secrets to effective card-based design
So you want to get on-trend with a card-style interface? That’s probably a great idea; cards are a popular and user-friendly option for all types of digital design on varying device sizes. The key to a card design is creating something that users want to click. (That is the key to a great card.) A card should serve as a container for a specific bit of content – content link, signup, video player,
Pantone unveils two colors of the year for 2016
In a fairly radical break with tradition, Pantone has revealed that the ‘Color of the Year’ for 2016 will in fact be two colors blended together. Or, in other words, a gradient. The colors selected, based on trend analysis, emerging techniques and materials, guesswork, and marketing, are 15-3919 Serenity and 13-1520 Rose Quartz. Pantone selects its color of the year each December. The prophecy is
Is the Floating Action Button the new Hamburger Menu?
Is the Floating Action Button the new Hamburger Menu? Google’s Material Design continues to be a popular approach to contemporary web design. An almost-flat style, the set of principles—originally designed as brand guidelines for Google—describe a layer-based approach to UI design. Aside from the prescriptive color scheme, the carefully neutral typography, and Disney-esque animation, Material Desi
Is Material Design killing the Web?
Material Design is the “it” phrase that many designers are talking about right now. The concept, which was developed by Google for Android devices has a neat, clean and highly-usable charm. Websites featuring Material Design are creeping out of the realm of Android devices and are popping up everywhere. And the reality is, many of these websites have the exact same look and feel. Material Design r
Embracing the latest web trend: card-based design
There are always new webdesign trends gaining momentum. Who could forget parallax scrolling from a few years ago, which is still popular today? As of late, long-scrolling pages are getting more attention from site visitors. One trend that’s not gotten as much recognition as many others, and has been around for a little while already, is card-based design. The most popular website that showcases th
