A resource I use for design inspo
I work with a lot of startups and re-brands, so one thing I constantly need is fresh inspiration. The kind that helps me figure out how to structure a landing page, how to present a product clearly, and how to make a site feel more polished without over complicating it.
One tool I keep coming back to is Minimal Gallery.
It’s basically one of my go-to places whenever I’m working on a new startup site or refreshing an existing one.
A lot of design inspiration websites are packed with flashy concepts or layouts that look great in a screenshot but wouldn’t work for a real startup trying to get signups. Minimal Gallery feels more practical. The sites featured there are usually clean, modern, and focused on clarity.
I’m not using it to copy. I’m using it to refresh my taste. That’s a big difference.
When you work on websites a lot, it’s easy to fall into the same habits over and over again. You start repeating the same section order, the same button style, the same layout logic. Looking through strong examples helps me break out of that.
It's easier on redesigns, where we already have the content, ideas and product ready. I'm just looking for a better way to present what already exists. I just find answers to a couple questions:
- How can this page feel lighter?
- How can we make this product look more premium?
- How can we simplify the layout without losing information?
So yeah, Minimal Gallery is one of those small resources I end up using all the time. It’s simple, but it fits my workflow really well, especially because I work on startups and redesigns so often.
Curious what other people use for website inspiration when working on startup landing pages.
