7th Day SlumberI love the creativity that went into all the projects, but this one [Sasi Wallpaper] has some very interesting use of jQuery and CSS as soon as you start scrolling. I think this effect is an attention grabber right off the bat. It has a simple and clean layout, with nice parallax breaks between content sections. The sticky menu on the left halfway down the page is also a nice touch. The image galleries used throughout the page keep the grid like feel of a physical wallpaper gallery. It is a nice combination of “wow”, informative, easy to read content, and a layout that compliments the nature of the business.

This doesn’t look like a ‘typical’ Divi website. There is some clever custom coding on the site like the murals section. Lovely imagery! I am a sucker for when it looks custom designed and use Divi, rather than use Divi to design.

Love the color palette, the sticky bar helps to make the opening section clutter free. To top it off, the blog cards are beautiful.

6. Amber Approved
Strong imagery and brand. This website has the lot, all a site needs plus blog, recipes, media… It must of taken a while to develop and keeping it consistent must be applauded. While we can tell it is Divi, it looks like it is well thought out.

6. Amber Approved
Great website with a lot of content. As the first I notice the pictures of Amber Romaniuk positively (no Stock Photos). This makes the website authentic. The content is all arranged clearly and I’m a fan of big cover pictures.

5. Beobé
Very clear one-pager with attention to details. I like the animation with the ice cream cone. Likewise the colors of the site. Everything very ordered and clear with the different sections and their color changes. The design of the blog section also convinces.

3. Sasi Wallpaper
Creative one-pager with a lot of cool animations. I especially like the animation of the cover picture. The menu icons are also great and fall directly into the eye.

Why are people excited to win a Divi Award?
I’ve been working hard in the last 4 years to improve my design & development skills, with this site redesign as a visual master piece focused on mobile design and conversion, a Divi award would be a great moment of awesomeness!
