Best of Website Design: 16 Designs of the Year From Awwwards

Whether you’re a designer, a photographer, a marketer or work with an online business, it doesn’t hurt to learn a thing or two from website design. Especially award winning designs. We’ll be looking at the top 18 website designs of 2017 as voted on by the Awwwards community.

Awwwards is a professional development and web design competition body. Their interests lie in promoting the best of innovative web design. Developers are free to submit their websites to compete, and each year there is a prize ceremony held at an Awwwards ceremony to award the best designs.

First, websites are submitted to be voted as ‘Site of the Day’, which is judged by the Awwwards community and an international jury of designers, developers, and agencies. As the year comes to an end, the best entries are added to the “The 365 Best Websites Around the World” book. The next phase is ‘Site of the Month’ which determines the contestants for ‘Site of the Year’, mentioned in our piece on 23 Beautiful Website Designs From Awwwards

Lets dive into the stand-out website designs this year.
