<p>I've searched the web for some of the most creative and unique web design designs to inspire you to create an awesome blog or website of your own. Check out my favorite picks from around the web:</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.bagigia.com/">Bagigia</a>:</strong> This is probably one of the most creative websites out there. Not only does the site feature parallax design, it's page navigation is completely unique and interactive. You can navigate the page by scrolling with your cursor, using the circle navigation panel on the bottom right hand side, or dragging the mock "zipper" along the bottom of the page. As you transition from page to page you get to experience the unique features of the Bagigia products, it's truly a unique and interactive experience.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><a href="http://www.bagigia.com/"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-46269" title="Screen Shot 2013-05-15 at 9.00.01 AM" src="http://static.colourlovers.com/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-15-at-9.00.01-AM1-560x322.png" alt="" width="560" height="322" /></a></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong><a href="http://www.indofolio.com/">IndoFolio</a>:</strong> What I love about this page is it's unique parallax design that involves horizontal scrolling. As you transition between pages you find that the background picture transforms and moves with you making page navigation fun and exciting.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.indofolio.com/"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-46266" title="Screen Shot 2013-05-15 at 9.08.29 AM" src="http://static.colourlovers.com/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-15-at-9.08.29-AM-560x299.png" alt="" width="560" height="299" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.thibaud.be/#/style02"><strong>Thibaud</strong></a>:<strong>&nbsp;</strong>This awesome portfolio design is one of my favorites because it allows users to select their preferred method of site navigation.

<p>There is nothing that screams Summer and Spring like flowers. I love walking outside and seeing all of the gorgeous and fragrant flowers blooming. There is something simply sweet and romantic about flowers. Not only do we give them as gifts to people we care about as a sign of affection, flowers are also presented to people as a symbol of regret and apology. I love the hidden meanings of flowers, and I think that floral prints and patterns are definitely making a come back in 2013. We are seeing more and more floral patterns with a funky and vintage flare on the runway, in stores, and featured in interior design.</p>
