In the early days of the web, designers made use of splash pages to introduce a website with a logo, a short description, and crucial supported browser information. We no longer dictate to our users which browsers they’re permitted to use, but splash pages are still fairly prominent in modern web design.
As layouts have expanded to take up the full screen, many sites now display just a logo or tagline to their users until they scroll to see the rest of the content. In today’s web design showcase, we round up 30 websites that make use of the modern splash pages. See how they reinforce their brand or introduce the company before taking the user to the main content.
Playtika
Playtika captivates audiences with beautifully produced, highly immersive social games. Their bright red presentation website starts with a simple splash screen.
Cultivated Wit
This is the presentation website of a creative agency/software company/storytelling company. It starts with a splash screen which consists only of the logo on a white background.
Urban Influence
This is another great example of a modern splash screen. It uses large, uppercase fonts and rounded CTA buttons to deliver the information right from the start.
MetaLab
Here’s another cool splash page with a flat colored background and a simple, straightforward tagline.
Maaemo
This company’s logo is beautiful, so why not showcase it on a splash screen with a mesmerizing background?
Logicart
Simple and straight to the point, this is how this company decided to deliver its message on the splash page.
Heck House
This splash screen has a somewhat vintage-inspired design, due to the font choice and desaturated photo background.
Apparatus
Combined with an animated/video background, you can create a really interactive and eye-catching splash page for your website, like in this example!
Oven Bits
The visitor should know what your site is about right from the first seconds! This website delivers its message loud and clear!
Echo Capital Group
This company’s tagline is written in bold on the homepage, followed by a subtle CTA link to find out more.
Cobble Hill
This is a great example on how to use video backgrounds on splash pages, alongside a block of text.

The logo and tagline on a beautiful, high-quality image, this is the recipe for having a successful, engaging and inspiring splash screen.

This splash page describes the website’s purpose in just three words, followed by a simple call to action button.
The Brooklyn Bridge
The font pairing choice, as well as the background, make this splash page really beautiful and creatively designed.
Lots of good pages here. Thanks for all the good ideas.
Aw-inspiring information. Thanks for sharing!
Urban Influence is very effective page i like the design and i like to use it , thanks for sharing these pages with us. i am adding you in my resources list.
we are also giving some free digital goods on our website if you like you can share them with your audience in next article , we will relay appreciate that. have a nice day :)
All of these splash pages look good and artsy and all of that…
But at the same time, they will also cause me to bounce, and leave your site.
I came to it for a reason and it was not to have a giant screenfull of useless.
They are barriers that prevent me from accessing the content I want, insulting bouncers that make me not want to enter the club.
Excellent, all design are awesome.
All the splash pages are impressive and creative. The most outstanding ones are Apparatus and CoLofts as they reflect simplicity with style.
The examples of splash pages you’ve displayed are really appealing and I get how things are trending right now. I’ve happen to see some flash splash pages on the web and those really create a bad user experience when the load time is a bit long.
I think the key in today’s market, is to have CSS based splash pages or maybe just images because load times are of vital importance, especially in some of the stuff I do.
Cheers,
Devin
I actually really enjoy splash pages, these are good examples. I think these are well designed and the image choices works well. Even the usability is great with all these!
This is actually not a design its just images !
I like Playtika and LogicArt. Nice List :)
