In web design, designers often strive to inject creativity into their interfaces and layouts. The good old pencil can be a highly useful tool that can easily add personality to a design, giving that feel of originality that you just don’t get with crisp, smooth digital effects. This showcase of creative doodles in web design provides a wealth of inspiration and shows how hand-drawn elements can add add that tactile and low-fi feel to a website design.

Great list Chris. Beautiful! Right what I need for my Monday morning inspiration ;) Thanks for sharing!

Great roundup Chris. I was going to say that it’s an excellent Monday Morning round-up, but it’s still Sunday evening here. :)
Nice collection. Definitely a great source of inspiration. While this trend might be slightly overused, I think if done right, it can really make a website look very nice.
Excellent list Chris. Just like everything you publish on line25 :-)
These are gorgeous! Thanks for showing them.
Stunning list, very inspirational.
- as are you: )
Thanks Chris.
Great collection. I think this kind of web design is becoming more appealing at the moment.
Nice list!
What is the best technique for creating doodles in web design?
Draw it with a pencil and then scan it in?
I have to admit Chris, I’m a bit sad that I didn’t make the list :(
This is a killer list though. My favorite kind of site designs to be honest.
Nice collection. Thankfully you only focus on great work as I know a few of things I’ve created would find their way on to the not so great list…
I recently became friends with a Wacom tablet and am very excited to apply some of these concepts to my future projects. These are great examples! Thanks Chris Spooner!
Hay!
nice collection, thnx for sharing.

It is amazing what having no limits can do with designers creativity. I wasn’t even able to pick a favorite.
What was awesome :O
Thanks!
Win a Wacom Tablet- help us design a new logo for anchorblue.
Great list, we have inspiration now…Thanks…
Can’t get more unique than if you doodle it yourself. Thanks for rounding up these great looking sites.
This is a good collection of doodle sites. I enjoyed checking them out. I love building sites artistic like these you have listed.
Whilst on the topic of doodles, if anyone is looking to add a doodle touch to their site without too much effort, check out my latest social media icon pack: The Little (Free) Sketchy Monster Social Icon Pack :)
I liked web designer wall a lot and thanks for including it in the list. I am going to build a site and going to post it in a contest held by grafikguru.com
This is the best part http://giraffe.net/notpage/ :)
thanks chris
Great list, we have inspiration now…Thanks…
I love to see this kind of design on websites, too bad i’m not creative/arty enough to do this myself
Thanks for including Dawghouse Design Studio in this list!
I love the “doodle” style on websites, I think it adds a touch of personality…
A nice list to refer back to! :)
Really cool post… Very creative and inspiring websites. I started in this business because as a kid, all I did was doodle around… Drawing caricatures on my school books (I have the attention span of a fruit fly)… As a grown-up I still do (every phone conference I have ends up being nothing but a date on top of the page and nothing but caricatures). I honestly hadn’t ever considered putting any of that on the web… until just now. So a very enthusiastic thank you for your post…
I’m browsing through designmeltdown.com and I came upon this site. I’m happy to see my design is included in the list. :D Thanks!
