Review:

Web standards is so much more than a spiffy CSS design. I can definitely† see a web design trend similar to when tables became popular - this time it is about unrelevant markup and 5-levels nested DIVs. But as long as it validates and uses CSS, it is considered to be web standards right? No, and that is why it is so nice and refreshing to come across a site like this. Super-clean markup, beautiful design and great typography. A superb blend of standards and design, and that is exactly what the future of web design is about. The accessability attempt of having the menu text hidden behind the graphics is honorable, but unfortunately it breaks in IE/mac. Ok, it's not the most popular browser, but it is still an issue worth addressing. But this is a great site with real quality markup, and that is worth a lot in my eyes.

I check this page every single day for inspiration & new sites, but this site completley blows me away. I love how subtle (though eye-catching) the orange is, and the way the lines add texture without caving into the grunge look.

Great design!

Very very clean code, text is a bit small but as its fluid who cares. Some weird javascriptness for the addresses? but I assume thats spam-bot related.

Nice work allround.

Wonderful site. It carries a very corperate feel without being bland at all. I think this site is visual proof that companies can get a professional look without compromising design. Great work!

The site is undoubtably well made, but I think it lacks variety in visual elements to direct the user to different areas of the site. Interestingly, I initially thought that the nav to the left of the site were google ads which I ignored for a few minutes!. Still, its a nicely crafted site and deserves recognition!
