Using a light source the right way can add dimension and beauty to a website design. Strong light sources create a stark contrast between light areas and shadows in a design, making the elements look more realistic!

Great blog, although I think some of the stuff on itt is a little pre used lol.
WOW… these are great websites.I wish the trend will become like that also in europe.
The effects make such a huge difference to the design, most of these would look quite flat without the background lighting.
Great selection, but these always seem to be filled with web designers, where is all the client work?
This can’t be formulated better
Well done – keep it up!
We love this page and use it as a reference for clients looking to get some pop in their sites! We also used it as inspiration for our own redesign (http://www.jivaldi.com).
It is just like drawing a picture and adding light to it. What a difference it would make to a website that may not as cool as this one. I think my favorite from above is US trendy. I love the designs in the background.
Great collection of inspiration here!

Great reference. Nice to get of designers prospectives. Not only in choice of ‘liked’ sites, but element selection. The ‘Light and Space’ examples are also well worth bookmarking.
