A very grey design

I (ben) am largely responsible for the design and typogreaphy of the buddycloud website. You may notice that the buddycloud site in fact looks quite similair to my personal site.

I have to admit that I'm a huge fan of squares, greys and regularity. (I also dress in squares, plain colours and with regularity). There's been some discussion recently about why you don't need to use photoshop, and instead can just design straight in the browser. Myself - I design right in the browser, using a text editor and plain old css (markup language for webdesigners). The squarey behemoth that is the buddycloud site is the result!

That's why it's a good thing that there are designers like the good people at Yellow Too in Berlin. Here's some of their mockups which are nice and colourful and have nice human edges.
