I like the way you look at a website like printed paper, in fact that is (what I believe) a proper way to look at a website. Did you see this design http://jasonsantamaria.com/articles/explain-yourself/ so simple yet so effective and all of the article is readable without scrolling. Thanks again.

A lot of comments above have already discussed the strengths that I agree with, but want to add that, as a print designer, typographer and typophile, I really appreciate the clean and subtly dynamic page layout you have developed here. I can't help, even when looking at website designs/layouts, to view them through a print design lens... for the best or worst! I especially love how the footer works. Beautiful!

I'll look into the design. Agreed on the Dutch-English language mix. I have had many requests to go for English, I will probably create pages for English & Dutch. Thank you for your comment.

I think you can improve your website a little bit by tuning down the brigtness of the white font in the footer. A bit more gray would make it easier to read. Like Thomas remarked earlier, make a choice between English or Dutch. Mixed languages will confuse the English readers, I think. Hi Sander,

This is a frightfully marvellous redesign! One tiny thing: it might be nice if the links were more obviously links: perhaps a bit of grey underlining or something might do the trick. Nice content too -- I've subscribed. :) Blimey! This is a frightfully marvellous redesign!

I love the clean, white space teamed with the use of simple, yet very attractive icons and excellent execution of typography. Very inspiring indeed. What a beautiful site.

It brings on the warm tinglies to know that it has helped someone with their work. I'm loving some of the elements here, specifically the headlines and logo. Meta Sans is such a beautiful typeface. Keep up the great work! Very nice work Sander, and thanks for the shoutout to Typesites. It brings on the warm tinglies to know that it has helped someone with their work.
