Sometimes less is definitely more. These webdesigns may look simple.. but i think it’s really dificult to make such a ’simple’ design look good.
I especially like the designs of ‘daniel guillan’ and ‘corkingdesign’

Minimalism seems to be the style these days. I must say, I do like some of these designs, especially the ones that use subtle but interesting images or backgrounds.

I like Stratosphere design, and structure theme most on this list.
I think using predominantly black and white for a website with 1 other bold colour works really well for portfolio sites, if your going for a clean minimal look. Also it helps to a have a simple to use navigation.
