An interesting way to spice up a web design is to add some depth to it. Instead of making a design flat, certain elements and techniques can stimulate the depth perception of the visitor.

  1. WOW! That’s really a cool collection you’ve gathered here, Mary Lou.

    There are so many that I like a lot… can’t really pick a favorite, but Dot Peak with the ‘request a quote bean’ will rank high for sure. 🙂

  2. Nice collection Marry Lou.

    Its not a new design trend, but recently I have also seen lot of such designs coming in market… in templates market area too.

  3. Very amazing examples. My top favorites here are Inspiredology, Creative Criminals, & Joyful Giftcard. Very nice post!
