5 Minimalistic Personal Websites to Drool Over

It's been a while since I've been in the blogosphere. Well, hello again!

As you may or may not have noticed, the loading time of this website +/- a year, and some of the icons don't even load. That's a bummer. I've been thinking for a while about redesigning and going going the personal, one page route with a blogging tab/gallery at the bottom. This search lead me to OnePageLove.com, a great resource for one page templates and website examples.

Here's a couple I've picked as favorites. Suggestions for which one would work best for me?

I'll Only Have a Salad

Daily Dishonesty, a lovely project by Lauren Nicole Hom, reminds us of the lies we tell ourselves everyday. 3 hours of sleep though - 3 hours of sleep is totally enough!

Impress Me with Your Fridge

Aren't we all a little tired of people trying to impress us with their cars and houses? Not to mention those who still think owning a Mac product is extraordinary cool. How about we unite and make more everyday products more impressive?

Electrolux is way ahead of us - encouraging students all around the world to come up with innovative application of Electrolux designs with their Design Lab contest. Impress Fridge was one of the finalist. I mean... just look at this thing:

I'll Make Your Eyes Hurt Just a Little

Not with this one! The eye hurting pick is below the fold.. So scroll down, if you dare!

Gaming media identity is one of a kind, if you ask me. Clear and distinct design is not something you often see with games - surprisingly! And oh, that pencil. Cupid just got my heart. 

Strawberry Sushi: No distractions

Because fish are the best animals. They do not talk. They don't really do anything, but that's just me being picky. Point is - fish are the best pets out there to put in (on?) a phone booth. No distractions, no interruptions. And you feel much less lonely, too.

Cool balls

I don't really know what is the meaning of those balls being the location where they are, but it looks pretty damn cool.

Softer and Sweeter

Hair, that is. For your lovely dog.

Besides the catchy visual, this print ad is simply lovely due to the perfect definition of the target audience. Our of all dog owners, which ones are most likely to use conditioner on their dogs? That's right, the owners of pink Pomeranians.
