It’s eye-catching headers this week on Friday Focus. Whether you believe in making the most of the content above the fold or not, it pays to make the top part of your websites extra beautiful because it’s the first thing people see.

Elegant, exquisite, and extreme details on these sites that are sure to please. Welcome to this week’s Friday Focus!

Welcome to the first Friday Focus for the month of July. This week: strong bursts of color and collapsible content. Curious combination? Read on!

Here’s a larger-than-usual Friday Focus for this week, featuring simple yet beautiful designs that just work. Four site types (blog, portfolio, static, e-commerce) that do a standout job of making an impression.

Things will mostly [...]

It’s easy get caught in the same style as a designer. We get lazy, happy with what we’re doing, satisfied. Those are not necessarily bad things, but they can lead to not pushing the borders, and that means that we won’t evolve as designers. So let’s break that design mold, shall we?

Hey everyone, Friday Focus is back. I’m sure you’ve been hanging off the edge of your seat after dealing with a tough week without the focus last week. Well, no more worrying to do now. Hopefully everyone that was celebrating Thanksgiving last week enjoyed the holiday and any kind of vacation that may had have, [...]

I’m doing a lot of design, and I though I would share my design process with you guys. It goes from sitting down with the design on a blank sheet of paper, to the zip file delivery - or whatever it might be. Perhaps there’s some tips and pointers that you could use in your own work, or you might just shake your head at the mad Swede’s workflow. Either way, it’s my design process.
