    Great site!

    FYI, if you navigate to 'About' and click on @jenschuetz, it takes you to @weightshift.

    Lovely design. And a real break for the 'norm' in web design right now.

    Refreshing, although it is quite a classic print design / structure.

    Such a sick site! Love the hover states on the portfolio links. Colfax looks great in any size or weight too, though the lowercase 'a' looks a lil funky?

      I tried to do that effect on my site, but couldn't work out how to do it. And I didn't want to use sprites to cheat it. Think I'll have a look see into their code.

        How would sprites be cheating? There's no such thing as cheating in code. There's just smart and not smart. Sprites would be smart but it may be difficult if you're using a CMS.

        They have a background image on each link. Then they clip the text shape out if the image using:

        -webkit-background-clip: text;

        Then on hover, they make the text transparent so you can see the image using:

        -webkit-text-fill-color: transparent;

          True, but it would be cheating in terms of the way I would have wanted to do it.

          Sounds easier than I thought, thanks for the info ;)

    Always been a fan of Naz Hamid's work and I really like this new grid/type heavy design. I'm generally not a fan of animated team photos but in this case it works. It "lightens" up the overall feel for the site.
