Web Designer Depot guides us on Minimalism

Kayla Knight wrote a wonderful piece for Web Designer Depot on minimalist web design. She breaks down what the purpose of minimalist design is with the goal of helping you achieve minimalism while maintaining beauty. A few nice tips are included such as how to minimize content, effective use of white space and the use of a wireframe. She also showcases several minimalist design examples. Personally, I like the pages of Symour Powell, Icon Werk and Checkland Kindlysides best.

One of the most visually appealing and well-built sites I've seen in recent memory is owned by Mono, a creative ad and marketing agency based in Minneapolis. Their clients include USA Networks, AMC, General Mills and Hitachi to name a few. If you are interested in minimalist design for the web be sure to check out Kayla's article to pick up a few pointers.
