Web design has an unspoken rule of layout, sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worst. However it exists probably to ensure a semi standardized way of understanding and using the web. However ever so often these conventions are challenged, and while some may fail others will shine as designs of originality, worthy of mention. It’s interesting to note that these designs are pushing the limits of current design capabilities, both in terms of CSS and javascript, however with the upcoming CSS3 and HTML5 standards, it’s a bet that web design and web based interfaces are in for some major improvements.
