Web Design Brief

We are looking for a final design for our B2B marketplace. The project is a social commerce platform managing the application and transaction process for festivals and local events. The site design should be based on either Bootstrap or Zurb Foundation. We will provide logos and example images.

Two of the most critical pages will be the home page and the search interface, as well several dashboards. Beyond that, most of the pages will be standard forms and other typical pages that drop into the general site theme. The design tends towards minimalism to simplify the UX and speed up the interface. It incorporates elements from the the following websites. Although the wireframes may lift design elements directly from some of these sites, we are looking for a design that incorporates them more as inspiration.

angel.co - good example of minimalist structure on internal pages
meetup.com - some similarities on search pages, etc.
pardot.com - nice simple layout for features on home and internal pages
pulpfingers.com - nice alternative to standard bootstrap template

We're nearing the end of this project.  I've received some good submissions , but they are all variations on the exact same theme.  I would still like to see something that doesn't look like a bootstrap template.  I suggested the following idea to a few of the submitters, but now I am adding it to the main project description in hopes of stoking the engine.

The idea I had is for something a little less "bootstrappy" riffs on the design at pulpfingers.com with a flat background color that nicely offsets the blue in the logo. Rather than pulling in a stock image I thought about creating a derivation of the iconic Woodstock poster, perhaps with vendor tents as tuning pegs and a silhouette of people on the neck. Just throwing that out there. 

I'm not a designer, though, so here's hoping we can see some different ideas while the project is still open.

Thanks.
