    Impressive web design. Pretty and usable and minimalist use of HTML. Rare to see all that in one place.

    Seems to be a project of 37signals. Some interesting work in their portfolio.

  2. Its Pointless... by Beautyon · · Score: 2 · on What Makes a Good Web Design?
    To talk about what makes good web design without giving EXAMPLES. Here are two:

    The International Herald Tribune
    This site is simply one of the best I have ever seen. It has all the right attributes, works in both Mozilla and IE5/6 identically, without loosing any of its cool functionality, beautiful typography or features.

    37 Signals
    Is an example of a design firm that excels in clarity and a good understanding of what web design needs to do. Take a look at the work they have done.

    Both of these sites are given as examples because they look superb without throwing away any functionality. They demonstrate through beauty and execution what usability means.

    The pro usability websites, whilst good for evangelism are sometimes ugly to look at, and not simple to navigate (and yes I know that "ugliness" subjective). You can find them for yourselvs.

    I've thought for a long time that one of the great web design firms should team up with the makers of a strong distro, so that the next generation of Linux desktop could be created; a desktop that is not windoze or aqua, but a third, elegant and unique thing.
