Get inspired with Best Practices of lightweight UX/UI Designs


Have a look through lightweight, low-carbon and user-friendly websites that come with a great UX and outstanding UI design.

The selection of UX/UI designs

The selection of the listed sites is based on three pillars: digital footprint, UX and UI. I measure the digital footprint with digitalbeacon.co. The evaluation of the UX and UI is done as an internal design review.

Planned extensions to the library

You can look forward to many extensions of the library. Various categories are planned, as well as references to the designers, interviews, backgrounds, saving options and much more.

Your suggestions for the library

You have suggestions for lightweight websites with top UX/UI? Maybe even a site of your business or one you designed? Submit a website by sending me a link of the site.

Quarterly new designs

New designs will be added every few weeks. So feel free to take a look at the library every now and then. Connect with me on InstagramLinkedIn or via my newsletter to get updates.

Analyze your own website

Find out how heavy your website is. I recommend to use Digital Beacon, which allows you to see how much CO2 per page visit is emitted from your website and how big your website is.

What means “CO2 per visit”?

The value “CO2 per visit” tells you how much estimated CO2 is emitted with a single website visit. If you multiply this by the number of visitors per month, you get a magnitude of the consumption.

Find your path. Be creative. Enjoy the journey.
