The DrupalCon Chicago website is a wonderful mixture of illustration and solid layout. Almost every detail in the illustrations represent Chicago and Drupal Dev, very clever looing. I really like the line work on everything, the shapes/boxes match up perfectly with all the art. The colors are very bold and fitting. I like the dropdown designs too on the main navigation and the sub pages, while all pretty much the same layout don’t bore you out as you go through the site. Really solid work here.
Brutalism in web design rejects perfection for authenticity. Stark grids, raw type, and honest structure create interfaces that feel human, intentional, and impossible to ignore. Break the rules, on purpose.
Monochrome Minimalism merges Bauhaus discipline with IKEA simplicity. Clean grids, muted tones, and functional beauty create digital calm, proof that restraint, not decoration, defines timeless design.
Over the past five years, a handful of new CSS features have completely reshaped how we build for the web. According to the 2025 State of CSS Survey, these are the true game-changers.
Awesome site
Gee, thanks for the nice compliments Gene! I am going to pass this review along to the rest of the team.
