This may be a minor nitpicky thing, but from a copy perspective, I find this a bit odd-
When I saw it I said "what's online print?" and then was like "oh ok, now i understand."
Because it's not separated with punctuation, and with the way it's stacked/spaced/ampersand, it sort of reads together. Just my take.- do you think a comma at the end of online would suffice?Akiraprise
- proobably more like. Web, print & branding
hellojeehae - Comma might be visually intruisive. Maybe "web." You'll have to play with it a bit.harlequino
- Just get rid of the &
Or make this your nav.monospaced

FYI - I don't think it's "proper" to use the ampersand as a replacement of "and" unless used with proper names. dunno if that matters to you.

in your branding section you have a logo project, maybe show how that was a branding project if it was? ie show guidelines and stuff

It's pretty nice. A bit boring on most sections outside 'home' & 'work'. Also the shift from the left aligned text that lines up with the sitename/logo on the home page to the inside pages and the right aligned list on our work seems weird.
You could probably make the headers a lot bigger too, the contrast in text size on the home page is nice.

You should consider showing your work right away. Save your users from as many clicks as possible, as well as any confusion.

Eyeing over some details on the site itself.... your web work reads as a carbon copy of each previous project... especially with masthead logo left, the horizontal nav.... even structurally are all very similar. Kinda dissapointed... and the print stuff... meh.
Sorry, not feeling this one.
- Agree with the web work - they've been built by a developer, not a designer, so the back-end systems are amazing, but they look shit ;)Akiraprise
- amazing, but the designs look shit ;)Akiraprise

Your work is much better than your website's interface. So, imho, your selling yourself somewhat short.

In Safari looks fine for me.

Why does it forward me to a different site?
- Akiraprise0
sorry about the forward, it's the same site but I prefer using my meak.in address :)

You make it REALLY HARD to navigate through the images within a project. Not only is the orange arrow small, it's hard to see.
Also, whenever I mouse over an image, this fugly box covers your work! So annoying.
- Has finger on the pulse.utopian
- Thanks for the comments I'll look into changing both of those, it's interesting to see how people navigate the work differentlyAkiraprise
- What other way is there?monospaced

i like it. although "our work" section. I am not sure. I think it breaks the grid.
