[Creative Spaces](http://www.creativespaces.net.au/) is a website dedicated to matching up artists and exhibition spaces in Melbourne, Australia. Although the main image on the home page kind of gives me the creeps the site itself makes great use of imagery to depict exhibit space, which is of course what they're trying to "sell".
The gray backgrounds really help the navigation and main content on each page standout and command attention. And the consistency in both primary and secondary navigation adds a great deal to usability. I think, however, what really works for this site is the imagery beneath the content. It's well thought out and simply works for the site. A quick look at the website of the [design studio that created the Creative Spaces site](http://studioracket.org/) and you can quickly see why they were hired. Nice work.
