That's a nice metaphor but it abuses scientific concepts. (That means my, uh, left hemisphere dislikes it...)

From my perspective, some of your examples seem a little off. For
example 37Signals... great usability designers, however absolutely
_horrible_ graphic designers (it is absolutely possible to have
both). Joyent on the other hand, has hired some excellent freelance
designers and illustrators to do their graphic work.

I currently have the pleasure of working with one Mike French. Here's a sample:

It's a little Flash-y, and I don't know where his static HTML portfolios are. They are very lean and clean. He has a good feel for how to fit the small details into the big picture.

My own layouts are sights that only a programmer could love. ;-)
