These emails pack a lot of punch in a medium-size space:
 District Dining: It’s fairly rare to see vertical photos in newsletters, but it’s very nice in this dining newsletter. |  Airside: It’s also rare to see a black background—white text on black isn’t very kind to the reader, but the contrast with the red flower is stunning. |
 Offscreen magazine: The photography of this magazine makes you want to touch it and quickly conveys its aesthetic. |  Barron Wells: This seemingly unbranded email is a breath of fresh air: How minimalist can you go? |
 Net-a-Porter: Mimicking a magazine layout, this email lets you click through right to the items you like. |  Box: These simple instructions on how to use a cloud storage service are scannable and memorable. |
 Ralph Lauren: This pup would like to remind you that you left something in your shopping cart. Who could say no? |  Chicago Children’s Theater: An adult-friendly invite to a kid-friendly event. |
 Dell: Apple isn’t the only hardware company that can take great product photos. |  Refinery29: Stylish accents and minimal text make this email very clickable. |
 Hudson Shoes: A playful email to encourage Father’s Day shopping gets right to the point. |  Kelly Market: Another stylish email that puts the focus on the products while still paying attention to typography. |
 Typo: We’ll forgive the starburst because the rest of the graphics are just gorgeous. |  Yuppiechef: Another good example of showcasing products without letting it turn into a jumble. |
 Different Projects: This agency has a strong sense of style, as evident in the color palette and layout of this email. |  Naughtyfish: Even fans of Swiss design will find something to cheer about with this minimalist email. |
