40 Amazing Minimalist Website Designs For Your Inspiration

Minimalism is beautiful. It truly is. The best part about minimalism in web design is that it comes in many styles, colors and sizes, but they always have the same goal in mind – saying the most while saying the least.

A great quote by Albert Einstein can sum up minimalism (in my opinion) 100%.

Everything should be as simple as it is, but not simpler.

In essence, this is exactly what minimalism in web design is – saying something as simple as possible, but not simpler. It’s a beautiful thing. So, below I’ve rounded up 40 amazing minimalist web designs for you to be inspired by.

    Hi!

    Nice showcase, minimal is my favourite style so it’s good to know what is around the web in that topic.

    This style becomes one of the 2010 design trends, and sometimes I’ve got strange feeling, that when I’m checking similar minimal/clean design showcases, most of the pages I’ve seen somewhere before, but with other branding. Maybe it’s because a lot have been already said in web design…

    Hi – I think the Einstein quote is actually;

    “Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.” (http://www.google.co.uk/search.....e+einstein)

    Great post though, thank you.

    As you can see by my portfolio site, I’ve always been a big fan of minimalism. Mine emphasizes nice typography, and uses a little bit of php to automatically link each new case study.

    Minimal is definetly the way to go in my humble opinion. It just shows the user the immediate purpose of a design and how to use it, simple!

    You have nice collection of designs. I believe minimalism is the trend this year. I like it more if it would be simple. Some websites are too exaggerating in terms of designing their website. Good thing my web designers gave me advices on which is more appealing and beautiful in terms of web design. ;)
