22 Websites That Use Beautiful Light Effects
Posted on 13. Oct, 2009 by Web Design in Inspiration
Light effects, if used correctly can give a website that nice warm glow to make it stand out and look more beautiful. I have put together a top quality list of what I think are the best website designs currently out there that use outstanding light effects.
Have a look through the list and tell me what you think, or maybe what one you like best. Remember to click on the images to view each website. Also if you think I have missed out any obvious websites on the list, then please feel free to drop in a comment. And by the way, that McCafe website is pretty addictive (designing your own coffee). Thanks to the Tao Effect for the title image!

Seems like a lot of the sites use styles similar to tutorials from http://abduzeedo.com/ I’m not hatin, just something I noticed. The rainbow hued lighting affects are still cool. I’m partial to the lighting effects that are interactions of real objects with surreal light sources.

Although all of these sites make use of lighting effects, you will see different … If done well it can look really lovely. Beautiful 2.0 looks nice. .

Maybe lightning should be considered as much or less like shadows in every design. Nice collection.

Nekob and {gulp} Mc Cafe are my faves! i’m actually glad that i can separate my disgust for an empire from their ability to buy talented designers. Nekob is awesome! great concept
