Light text on a dark background for a blog is very hard to read for most people. Also the body text is more prominent than that headers which makes scanning impossible, which is how most read blogs. The content may be good but I didn't read it since your links are so vibrant it reminds me of an SEO blog. Re think the color and hierarchy of your text, both size, weight, face and color.

"After I had made the Ball Chair I wanted to have the light inside it and so I had the idea of a transparent ball where light comes from all directions. The only suitable material is acrylic which is heated and blown into shape like a soap bubble. Since I knew that the dome-shaped skylights are made in this way I contacted the manufacturer and asked if it would be technically possible to blow a bubble that is bigger than a hemisphere. The answer was yes. I had a steel ring made, the bubble was blown and cushions were added and the chair was ready. And again the name was obvious: BUBBLE."

"Lesson on JET LAG from my native homeland:
Although your body may have arrived in one piece, your soul is still somewhere over your home backyard sat on the swing.
You will simply have to chill out and wait a few days for it to arrive."

"A blog is a blog, is a blog, is a blog ... but a blog does not necessarily have to be a blog. It can be anything as it is ergonomically correct. A blog could even be a small and soft Pony on which you can 'ride' or sit sideways."
