I wish the web would be designed with Swiss style, typography-heavy design though not sure how viable that'd be

Do you have a few links where I can read more about this design direction?

Not the parent, but here are some examples, with a brief description of the style: http://splashnology.com/article/swiss-style-in-modern-web-de...

Personally I find most sites that use Swiss Style impossible to navigate/use. They "look nice" (actually, quite amazing in my opinion) but functionality is #1 for most websites and I would never make a site purposefully using this style. Most of the time, there is just too much going on.
