Natural elements lend themselves well to websites, they bring something that we can all relate to to our screens and soften what can otherwise be a sterile and lifeless environment. Wood is one natural element that has been used frequently, today we’re going to look at some of the best examples in recent web design …


Electric Pulp – I’ve been a big fan of this design since it launched – it blends faux-water color techniques with a dark wooden background

ISO50 – Portfolio of Scott Hanse, one of the first sites I remember seeing that used wood as background

    Enough of the ‘10,20,30 websites blah blah’ in my opinion :)

    Fantastic range of sites there.
    The mix of traditional material and digital design always goes down well in my opinion!
