That's the first thing I noticed as well with the underlined ITC Clearface on a solid color taking up half the page. Definitely not a rip though - more like a subtle nod. Lots of nice and original stuff on this site.
I'm a huge fan of this typeface but the similarity was indeed too close. I updated the site with some more of the illustrative lettering.
Other things like the half-split structure have an conceptual background.
I'm incredibly thankful for all your feedback!
