Who are the top Drupal Designers?

The Lullabot team and particularly Ted Serbinski seem to have a good grasp of theming. They are even offering Drupal Theming Workshops.

Are you asking about Drupal design (architecture, implementation of a site) or theme design? Because those can be different skill sets. Also, there are more people that can probably take a theme design and implement it in Drupal then people who can design a theme AND implement it in Drupal. For instance, the theme for http://www.twit.tv/ wasn't designed by a Drupal designer, but the site and implementation of the theme itself was (Lullabot).

I believe Bryght and Rain City Studios should be mentioned as other companies with a lot of experience in the area as well.

Hi! Although new to Drupal, I have done quite a bit of themeing for it and can now safely say that there is nothing impossible with Drupal. I am sorry I can't contribute my Drupal theme to the community, just yet, or having a working version ready somewhere; this is coz' the site has been developed as an organization's intranet and they weren't too happy with the thought of having the theme available to an entire community. However, I have uploaded screenshots of my theme for Drupal on my blog. Do have a look, and I hope I make the cut :-).

These guys are good. They posted one of the best ecommerce sites I've seen using Drupal/ubercart. sprocketcreative.com. The site they just did is: cornerstonecookiegifts.com. I saw someone commment on that site through this blog.

I've been a designer for 20 years, the last 15 of which were spent mostly designing web sites. I owned my own successful design firm from 1995 to 2003. I joined pingVision as lead designer in 2007, and worked there until August of 2008, at which time I started my own company, again, which is what I do now. I've been working pretty exclusively with Drupal for almost four years now, and headed up theming, design, and user interface for some big drupal projects in that time, including the Knight Foundation-funded project, Printcasting, and now FeedBrewer and BookBrewer, where I am the COO and Creative Director.

I'm looking for 10-20 hours per week of work on big and/or fun projects to supplement my income as we go into alpha on BookBrewer. If anyone is interested, please check out some of my work. Been a bit too busy to keep the portfolio up-to-date, but you should get a good sense of my work by looking at the following Drupal sites:

http://www.donhajicek.com
http://www.bookbrewer.com
http://www.printcasting.com
http://www.feedbrewer.com

In 2008, my Drupal design/theming work won two Horizon Interactive awards, for what that's worth.

Thanks for listening! :)
