One of the greatest challenges for designers, or any type of creative role, is working with limitations. It’s easy to throw a stream of ideas or styles into a single project, but giving yourself restrictions will allow you to truly flex your talents as a designer. A particularly intriguing example of this in terms of web design can be found in sites that host the entirety of their content on a single page.
The aesthetics of single page site design echo the limited nature of print, and while it’s certainly not a new concept, there’s been a growing trend, of late, in sites opting for this type of design. Aside from interactive Flash sites, or portfolio sites, this is becoming a popular option for organizations in the non-profit space, as well as for consumer and business facing companies. Here’s a showcase of 15 sites that use unique methods of hosting content on one page.

This catering company has a great single page design that could make anyone’s mouth water. The page slides from side to side as you navigate through the various sections of the site. One of the coolest parts is that the design is persistent panorama style design with high quality photos of the food they provide.
