Our Top Sites for Design Inspiration 25
Every week at Fueled, our London-based Creative Director, Rob Palmer, shares a handful of inspirational websites with our teams in New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago. This weekly email acts as a virtual water cooler, encouraging us to congregate across time zones and discuss what brands and blogs are doing to push new trends in web design.

IWC Skywriter

Convoy Interactive
Holy transitions Batman! Digital agency Convoy Interactive's website is simple, yet a click on navigation items causes a smooth sweeping motion across the user's screen in a seamless fashion.

Grosse Latern
"Like butter" might be the only way to describe the motion animations on this single page website. Beautiful, flat designs presented in just one color and bopping letters in the headline make this website a joy to scroll.
