Share the most beautiful websites that have caught your attention

I believe every project should have a website to showcase its offering, not to mention for SEO purposes. Whether SEO will still be relevant due to AI is another discussion.

Do you have any favourite websites that are both functional and beautifully designed?

Share their UI in the comments, I’d love to get inspired!

Here are a few that really caught my eye:

P.S. Something similar, Rajiv shared a few months ago, but with more minimalist designs – you can be inspired by them too.

I have a few hits :

https://immersive-g.com/ : Feels like an art book you interact with

@raniazyane these 2 are really interesting :)

Sean Howell
@raniazyane definitely gorgeous I am curious about ctr etc using this format. As art it is exceptional. Reminds of a https://neal.fun/deep-sea/ but with more sizzle

@raniazyane  @howell4change This one is so cool! I Bookmarked it! :D

Nika

@raniazyane The first one looks like something from a video game. Reminds me my teens :D

I am bookmarking Olivere to be honest. Loved his work, I can only wish that someday I will have the opportunity to review and improve my newly started website www.avenirs.co. Thanks for sharing.

Sean Howell
@besnik_ligaci which did you like?
Besnik Ligaci

@howell4change i liked Olivere's work. And there was several interesting works in there that were very nice. Therahive, Ribbit, Goozby. Super well done.

@howell4change  @besnik_ligaci Noting it for myself. 👀✍️

Nika

@besnik_ligaci Why did you choose orange, blue and green like main colours?

Besnik Ligaci

@busmark_w_nika I like the warmth that the orange transmits, and in the gradient form, it is not overly in your face; it is a bit subtle (it is also supposed to relate to action and development). The green (lime-like) colour is a fresh accent and bold, resonating a youthful approach.

Then, in the logo, we have a paper plane with a dotted trail (my favourite part of this concept), meaning that the journey into education and career is always step by step, and not necessarily straightforward, but it takes you through ups and downs, and several options are ahead to explore. Until you find your fit.

And that's what we try to do at Avenirs: help young people understand their education and career paths and make informed decisions.

Nika

@besnik_ligaci Like how you attached a meaning to all of them :)

I think these are some of the amazing website i found it very eye catching and very well intreactive designs. You can check this as well.

obys.agency -Ukrainian design agency
marcdesign.studio - Designer portfolio that feels more like a visual experience

These are amzing websites was sent by one of my friend who is a UI/UX desinger and find it like amazing creation!



Nika

@suvam_deo Thank you for sharing! :) @a11yexpert also suggested Obys

Nika

@rushasen are you into history and art? :)

Rusha Sen

@busmark_w_nika Yes, majorly. I collect artworks from all over the world. Art is all forms bring unbridled joy to my life.

Nika

@rushasen What is your favourite collection you have? :)

Rusha Sen

@busmark_w_nika I have picked up artworks from artists specialising in folklore, culture, history and nature. This include paintings, wooden statues, embroidered wall art, stone sculptures. Can't pick a favourite. Love them all. They are my priceless possessions.

Sean Howell

@busmark_w_nika  @rushasen artsy runs soooooo smooth for a high load site. Both their designs are the in vogue and you can see several theme duplicate them on word press e commerce templates even if artsy. Kudos to the artsy team.

Sean Howell
I am surprised https://store.sidlee.com/ didn’t make the list. They are always pushing boundaries and the current form has such high utility — massive respect.
Nika

@howell4change I dunno what this is, but I love it :D

sania khan

@busmark_w_nikaI just explored Sarah’s website and honestly, it’s such a fun experience! I found myself clicking through so many things and loved every bit of it. The Tweety Flap, To-Do List, Calculator, and Food Blog were all super cool and creative. 😄 It's like a mini playground of awesome ideas. Loved it, lol!

Nika

@sania_khan10 Windows 1998 :D welcome in 90s :D or Vista. :D

sania khan

@busmark_w_nika Haha true! All we need now is Minesweeper and a floppy disk! :)

Ran

My top picks right off the bat would be Stripe, Linear, Notion, and Obys. Pitch, Read.cv, and The Pudding are also beautiful in very different ways. The work we do at Equally AI really sharpened my eye for friction, like, can you move through the site without having to stop and think, “wait, how does this work?” Can someone else do it with a screen reader? If not, it’s not really “beautifully designed.” At least not in my book.

Nika

@a11yexpert I will look at some of them. But at first glance, they look minimalistic. Especially Read cv. :)

Karan Arora from Boringlaunch 🚀

there is a cool directory for website inspiration that i often visit

Nika

@gamifykaran These were vibe-coded, right?

Miras

It's so true that a website is crucial for showcasing a project. I really admire sites that manage to be both functional and visually engaging, especially when they need to convey a novel concept clearly.

Speaking of which, I'd love to share the website for my own project, FaceArena: https://facearena.games
I'd be super grateful for any thoughts on its design! Always looking to get inspired and improve.

Nika

@miras808 Is it vibe-coded?

Miras

@busmark_w_nika  Essentially, yes! I actually started with a base template and then leveraged AI tools to tailor design elements to perfectly match the game aesthetic, interactive spirit of FaceArena. It was a cool way to get that playful feel quickly, especially since building the product as fast as possible was actually a task from nFactorial Incubator, which pushed me to get it done in about a month!

Priyanka Gosai

Two that genuinely left an impression on me:

  1. Easy Tomorrow: The calm. The motion. The gentle storytelling. It’s one of those sites where the design breathes giving space to both visuals and curiosity. Felt like I was scrolling through an art installation.

  2. Robertet: Scented Connections – I didn’t expect a perfume experience to translate so elegantly to the web. The transitions feel intentional, almost cinematic. You can sense how much thought went into aligning brand, emotion, and interactivity.

Both felt like a reminder that the web doesn’t have to scream to be unforgettable.

Nika

@priyanka_gosai1 Both of them are new to me – thank you for sharing.

For some unknown reason, I cannot load the first one. 😭

Priyanka Gosai

@busmark_w_nika I did face some lag initially, probably because of all the Lottie animations and layered graphics. But after 15–20 minutes, it loaded fine. Maybe just needed time to settle or cache properly.

lucy taylor

https://www.systweak.com/blogs/ Perfect for tech news and troubleshooting ideas.

Nika

@lucytaylor01 Do you like their design?

One that recently caught my eye is Shatoolshub.com — it's simple, fast, and focused on utility without clutter. Not overly flashy, but very intentional in design and user flow. I love sites that prioritize clarity and function while still feeling polished. Looking forward to discovering more gems in this thread!

Nika

@shatoolshub It looks very simple like an directory but pictures are not quite unified.
