Cool animation of the logo when scrolling or hovering. The website stands out with clean and fresh design – bright color pallete, big photos and simple, short texts. Crucial for today’s designs is to ONLY show what is really important. Avoid overwhelming your audience with information.

10. HeadOffice

Currently redesigned and not fully functioning, but you can still get inspired by the neon colors, strong contrast and simple pixel icons.

One of the best examples of gamification we find on the web. You have narration, comic book characters, storytelling. The different menus are drawn as big, flashy neon advertisements.

Now, this is how you make a serious services, attractive and appealing!

Little bit confusing at first, but certainly ‘different’ and provoking interest. The home page is consisting of a long block of text, on top of which there are “opened tabs”.
