27 Trendy And Unique Website Header DesignsOne of the most important parts of the website is the header. This is what the visitor will see first, this will need to be appealing to the eye while functional to let the visitor find the navigation easily.

Coming up with a unique header is always hard, that’s why I decided to make a little list with the ones that had the most impact on me while navigating.

    These are fine but I don’t see any that are from the real world… That being any sort of site that would be designed for a paying client. They are all in the genre of designer portfolios.

      Well most paying clients like simple and professional look, some of the sites are for real life paying clients, like Tennessee Vacations. Its run by the state of Tennessee and they there site might be one of the most distracting ones from the lists.

    This is art. Not Webdesign.

    The bad thing about most of these is that the headers take up at least half the screen on a 1280×800 resolution screen. That is way too large for a header. Take, for example, the Made in Space site. I have absolutely no idea what this site is for or what this person does when I come here. Bigger is not better in web design.

    Although many of the graphics are skillfully designed, many fail in execution because they don’t communicate the correct message. Graphics should support and be a part of the message. To put it bluntly; many of the graphics above are pointless and unnecessary. All style, no substance.

      While I find your criticism to be valid in some cases, it must also be acknowledged that sometimes style is the message.

      while they are pretty to look at, i struggle with where to start.
