Perhaps BH is a bad example.

How about these:

http://lite.cnn.io/en

http://valentinpapon.com/

More at the following link, but I warn you some of the websites go to a great extent in the favor of functionalism/brutalist expressions to the point where the damn thing is completely unusable. Cool though, very.

Also note the recurring themes:

  - Monospaced fonts
  - Full saturated blue #0000FF everywhere
  - unexpectedly large fonts
  - Retro 80's vibe (cursors, fonts, gifs, etc.)

:-) I find all of this very interesting.

Those are definitely better examples! And I take your point that we may be in a period that will be looked back on as overkill when it comes to design.
