Carefully Considered
There are a few websites out there that use a horizontal layout, Carefully Considered is one of them. However, I like how they have made browsing effortless, just click to the right to view the next project and double click to read about the project.

Fauborg
A great website that allows you to browse both horizontally and vertically smoothly by dragging and dropping.

Daniel R Leyva
Daniel is someone who clearly has lot of creativity. He has mastered the parallax effect supplied by the jQuery library and created a 3D environment in which to browse the content. I feel with a background image containing a little perspective would work wonders with this design.

Organic Grid
Organic Grid have taken a similar approach to 65 Media (vica versa), a simple vertical menu with a gradient of backgrounds. With some beautiful sounds complimenting the mouse over and beautiful transitions throughout the website, it is a joy to browse.

Khai Liew
Khai Liew has gone for the horizontal but vertical approach. Although it can be hard to read the menu item names without tilting your head slightly, the design alongside beautiful transitions is incredibly unique.

Young
When looking at Young for the first time, you predict that it scrolls horizontal, however with no horizontal scrollbar appearing, you begin to question yourself. However, once hovering over work you notice the black bar thicken; indicating that it is a scroll bar, very stylish.

Hello Goodlooking
There are very few websites that try something totally different. Hello Goodlooking is one of the few. Navigation is based around a mind map design. Menu items are clicked to reveal new items and content. A stunning example of creativity using Flash.
Hello Goodlooking
WallSwaps
Wallswaps is a great idea procured by Erskine Design. It is a virtual cork board where companies and designers can add their work, business cards and a lot more. A beautiful idea with some exceptional navigation.

Joshua Distler
Josh takes a different approach to typical web design. Based around a grid, the main homepage is made up entirely of navigation withe each menu item taking up a different amount of blocks. Not sure what determines how many blocks an item takes up but nonetheless a very creative design.

Design is Kinky Studio
A website that allows the user to browse both horizontally and vertically, by hovering the cursor over the arrows positioned at the edges of the screen. Also allows you to zoom in and out.

BBH
Flash just blows my mind sometimes. The BBH homepage features a rotating world in which to navigate. One can position the mouse around the screen to determine which way the world rotates or one can click the world and drag yourself around its surface. What’s more impressive is the exquisite transitions throughout the website.

Thibaud
Probably the most creative navigation I have ever seen. How was this achieved? By finding inspiration from objects and the environment around. Get outside once in a while, don’t let the CSS galleries plague your mind.

What seems to be just a large vertical menu, actually contains the content as well. Click on the arrow to the right of each menu item to have the content smootlhy scroll in.

24 ways
Athough 24 ways is comprised of just horizontal and vertical menus, it is the way they have been made that demonstrates creativity. With full height and translucent backgrounds the end result is very appealing.
