I’ve always been a big fan of corporate websites. The good ones, of course! Not sure why, but I’m just a sucker for their clean look.
My last job was Creative Designer for a multinational company and among my many assignments, I also had to redesign the corporate website. So I had the chance to study the competition, as well as other well designed corporate websites.
Below is a list of some of the best corporate websites out there. La creme de la creme! If you’re looking for some inspiration for your next corporate design, then this is the place to be. If not, you might want to bookmark this page for future reference.
As you can see, there are many similar elements. I will be back with my thought on what I considered “best practices” when designing a big corporate website. Until then… a Digg or a Stumble is always appreciated!

Out of them all, I like IdeaLab best. Clean, expressive, to the point. Nice bookmarks!
Alex, I was almost certain this would be your favorite.
Am I that predictable?
Well, you know I like clean, well-spaced designs. And the color scheme is very fresh on Idealab. This is a bookmarkable post, for sure.
Wow. Great list, indeed! The BlackBerry one looks good also. I’m working on a Corporate design for a client currently. Still working on it.
What a coincidence! Good luck with that. I’m sure this list will be useful.
The list is just awesome. Most of the sites have used fresh and bright colors and they are very catchy.
Nice post!
These are awesome. Mainly technology sites with a large banner and a tab menu seems the way to go
Keep it coming!
I liked IBM’s clean and loads fast…they must be running on ibm servers i guess -=)
Awesome list. The white is making the maximum usage with contrast promotional sections. Good collection. Keep going!
Great list of sites! They sure can bu used as inspiration for new designs.
Thank you!
I’m not sure the AMD or the IBM sites are that good. But I agree with the rest of your choices. Very nice collection.
Great list, it is really making me thing twice about using blue in any more of my corporate designs. I knew that it was bad, but this list really shows that business loves blue.
Excelente trabajo! Muy buena galeria!
Thanks everyone! I’m glad to see this list can help so many people.
@liam: Yeah, maybe AMD is a bit rough around the edges, but I think IBM deserves a spot here
@Zinni: I know! Blue seems to be the official corporate color.
Good collection. Hope we get similar wordpress themes in the future.
Nice list of sites. I like how most of them feature the big box of content that features something special, and then the 3 box sections under it.
Can these sites be made using wordpress?
Anything is possible with Wordpress. It’s just a matter of knowing how to play with the template tags and plugins.
