Oh this one came out super nice, Crysta.

You too are playing with my favorite web design lifehack. Pick one or more awesome images and pair them with a clean simple layout and let the image(s) do all the work. And boy howdy is that awesome background image putting in a lot of work. But the whole thing looks great. Your pun-tastic bodycopy made me groan at times too. I also like how you mixed in the colors from the water into your navigation and logo. Great use of contrast too. That sand background makes for a great content area and really shows everything well. There's enough margin that everything can breathe without fragmenting. Your navigation is easy to see and use. Your type is well selected and easily read. Everything is placed perfectly. Your design is even liquid, if not responsive.

I'm not sure your services page needed a scrolling box for it's content. I think it might have looked better either stretched out fully or broken into two columns.

Nicely done. Now I want to go sit on a beach and listen to the waves crash around me.

Hi Crysta,

I love this! Awesome job with your responsive design and spacing because it looks great at the resolutions I've tried your website in. Everything is easy and simple to navigate. I'm a huge fan of your background image, I feel that it really ties in with your type and color choices. Putting a few images as you mentioned would be great to add on to the website to fill that empty space, but other than that, looks great! Awesome job!

Hi Crysta!

First off, SO clean! I just love how simple it is and the background you used. The colors and imagery lend themselves to the emphasis of the business and I think that’s really successful. I would say give some leading in your body copy but that’s it! Awesome job!

Hello,
I like how soothing this webpage is, if this is what you were aiming for you surly got it! The typeface you used for the name on the top left also is a very nice touch. The only thing I would suggest is making your text a bit larger. well done

Your website has great overall consistency but it's almost too consistent and the pages have no differentiation. I think you did a good job but maybe changing some minor things.
