favourite web site design

[billb]

have been looking at web site design a lot recently and was wondering if anyone has any favourite sites purely in terms of design - not just fancy features but u look at the site and go yep thats great eg:

www.mitchellprice.com/

pistonheads.com not allowed!

[rpguk]

www.extremepie.com/

My fav, lovely form and function

I always liked www.iiyama.co.uk

www.oxygen-productions.com/ is quite Flash.

Oxygen site is nice. Quick even on my lowly PII 233 laptop.

www.fritz-deutschland.de/

For quality flash check out:

www.2advanced.com

They do some quality sites including:

www.2advanced.com/portfolio/01LA/intro.htm

For a looks and design I like these photographers sites:

www.verne.be

&

www.simonfocus.com/portfolio1.html

Unfortunately they all would benefit from a fast connection.

I also like Andy Fould's site - www.foulds2000.freeserve.co.uk/index_v2.html

Click on the amusements too as well as the Enter part.

for me, the guardian and the bbc are both great.

a proper global site navigation bar is the key to a good large site. so you can get anywhere from anywhere in a minimum of hops.

The old TVR site had a really good and simple html layout.
Changed to Flash since last motorshow tough

Looks good but as with all flash sites hopeless if you want any search engine traffic.

If you are interested in nice site design, the place to go is macromedia.com's showcase... there is some great stuff in there

They have got a new HTML one as well now which has a nice clean design, not a big fan of the flash one though (actually that extends to my views of all 'functional' websites)
