Hi Everyone, we just launched Dane Arthur, a minimalist (brutalist?) real estate website that covers all areas of Minnesota & Wisconsin (19 MLS boards). The idea was to run in the opposite direction of everyone else. Mobile version will be up next week (currently looks terrible on mobile, fine on desktop/tablet). Feedback is welcome - thanks!

Best thing I've seen in years. Risking an oxymoron I think you could achieve a prettier brutalist design with a little more care around the typography. I like it a lot.

I was going to say, Brutalism aside, this site is about 10 CSS rules away from being gorgeous on top.

You know how it goes...when you work on something intensely, you can lose some perspective. I'm very open to suggestions. Thanks.

Wow. Thank you very much. I appreciate it and will keep playing around with the typography.

I think this is the only time I've ever visited a real estate site that didn't cause me immense suffering. It's amazing how much more usable it is if you remove all the marketing site style fluff.
