Thank you :) I'm slightly worried about not having a contact form, what thoughts do you have on this ?

I think a little contact form is nice, it is easier for client to write a message. Maybe you can add one on the right site next from you contact details. I write you a little mail maybe you can check your mailbox :)

Looks proper. Only technical comment is the top navigation acts a little funky cursor-wise and you might want to change its layout for mobile - 'Contact' gets clipped off the edge on small screen sizes.

As far as the work portfolio, I would like to see more shots of the work and some links to any live sites/apps. Good stuff. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Adam,

I really like the design. It's clean, clear, good photos.

There are a few typos/inconsistencies that I noticed though:

  1. The "Blog" in the top nav is capitalised, whereas the other nav links aren't
  2. Once you scroll and the nav becomes fixed, "Blog" disappears

In addition, just some opinions:

  1. Maybe the line length is a little long in places on desktop.
  2. The photo of your work space is really nice, but I think it would be better just occurring once on the home page. It'd be cool if you had another, similar photo to put in place of the one above the map.
  3. Some of your image file sizes are really big, so a bit slow to load.

All the best,

Ede

Hey, looking good! Here are a few thoughts I had:

The header looks a bit "heavy" with both your name/logo and the nav menu there. Have you played with moving the nav menu to the right side of the screen?

The white space, in my browser at least (MacBook 13", Chrome) ends at the bottom of the screen and about half an inch of the images below it peek out. Perhaps its my own OCD about it, but I think it would be a cleaner look if the white box extended to the bottom of the viewable part of the page so you can't see the images below it. (I hope this makes sense)

As mentioned above, I'd remove the second image of your workspace in lieu of something else- maybe a landscape oriented picture of you and your brother? It might make it a bit more... personal, which is something I feel customers like.

When you click on a nav link, the header drops the logo and the "contact us" link bumps to a second line beneath the other options. Not sure if this was intentional or not, but again, for "cleanliness" sake, I would prefer to see it all inline.

Nice work so far! And good job asking for constructive criticism!
