Your reference route

Browse here. Send what you like.

You choose the visual direction. Send me a link or screenshot and one sentence about the part you like; I will identify it, check its source and terms, avoid duplicates, and save a useful reference into Design Brain.

Start with these four

Real product screens and flows · Mixed access

Refero ↗

Use it for dashboards, onboarding, pricing, forms, cards, navigation and complete user flows.

Search by: page type, UX pattern or UI element.

Complete websites · Free to browse

Siteinspire ↗

Use it for whole-site art direction, typography, layout, navigation and industry examples.

Search by: style, type, subject or platform.

Expressive live websites · Free to browse

Recent ↗

Use it for bolder websites, motion, unusual composition and strong visual identity.

Notice: what is useful versus what would distract a client.

Landing pages · Mixed access

Land-book ↗

Use it for hero sections, service pages, portfolios, product launches and page structure.

Search by: industry, style, colour or page purpose.

For a specific kind of reference

Mobbin ↗

Real app and web-product screens. Best for product flows and common interface conventions.

Page Flows ↗

Recorded user flows. Best when a screenshot cannot explain how a task behaves from start to finish.

Lapa Ninja ↗

Landing-page collections for full-page sequence, hero and call-to-action research.

Minimal Gallery ↗

Restrained, typography-led sites for clarity, space and fewer visual effects.

Hoverstates ↗

Experimental websites for unusual navigation, type, motion and interaction ideas.

One Page Love ↗

Single-page websites for compact services and deciding what information earns a section.

Awwwards ↗

Highly produced websites. Study craft, then check usability and performance separately.

Figma Community ↗

Community design files and UI kits. Send the exact creator and file link; access does not settle reuse rights.

Design resources from Instagram

Use these for design research. Open a screenshot at full size or follow the source. Mobbin ↗ is already in the list above.

ScreensDesign’s guide to app onboarding
App flows · Visual study

ScreensDesign ↗

Study what each step does before a visitor reaches the result.

Arcotype’s font specimens and font pairing tool
Typography · Visual study

Arcotype ↗

Try type pairings with your own headings and body copy. Check each font’s web licence at the source.

Interface Craft’s serif title and illustrated cards
Art direction · Visual study

Interface Craft ↗

Study the type hierarchy, open space and illustrated cards on the public landing page.

Moodboards · Visual reference

Cosmos ↗

Find colour and image references. Follow any image you want to use back to its original source.

Existing builds and builder examples

HTML5 UP ↗

Downloadable portfolio, editorial and landing templates with attribution requirements.

Astro themes ↗

Modern static-site themes. Each has its own repository, build needs and licence.

Webflow cloneables ↗

Cloneable sections and interactions. Cloneable does not automatically mean unrestricted outside Webflow.

Wix templates ↗

Broad industry examples. Treat them as Wix references, not downloadable source code.

Designers and teachers to learn from

Visual hierarchy

Steve Schoger

Design tips and UI refactors. Look for the exact spacing, weight or colour change that makes a screen clearer.

Tips, projects and videos ↗
Interaction detail

Rauno Freiberg

A collection of interface experiments. Study the feedback, transitions and small details in each one.

Browse Craft ↗

Image and brand tools

Choose a tool for the job, then compare a result with the original at the size it will appear on the page.

Logos and vector images

Recraft

Explore SVG graphics and recolourable logo ideas. Review the selected plan’s commercial-use terms before client work.

Vector generator and examples ↗
Local upscaling

Upscayl Desktop

Free open-source desktop image enlargement. Test for halos, altered detail and useful gains at the intended display size.

Desktop app and requirements ↗

Extract colour ideas from a business’s photo or logo. Assign colours to page roles and check contrast.

Extract a palette ↗

What to send me

1 · Source

Link or screenshot

Send the exact page link. Add a screenshot or short recording when the important detail moves.

2 · Detail

What you like

Name the hero, card, menu, typography, colour, spacing, hover effect, flow or overall mood.

3 · Possible use

Where it might fit

For example: restaurant homepage, agency portfolio, booking flow or general inspiration.

Copy this sentence

Easy message

“Save this for [project/type]. I like the [part] because [reason].”

A screenshot is evidence of an appearance, not permission to copy the whole site, brand, artwork, photography or code. I will separate inspiration from reusable source when I file it.
