I've recently redesigned my personal website to reflect a more minimalist and "brutalist" aesthetic. The goal was to strip away the unnecessary and focus purely on the content—typography, spacing, and clear information.
Inspired by modern design trends like those seen on brutalist.dev, I decided to go with a high-contrast dark mode, massive headings using the Inter font family, and a single-column layout that works beautifully on all devices.
This new structure also makes it easier for me to share my work on Soplang, nabadOS, and my other open-source projects.
In a web filled with glossy gradients and complex animations, brutalism stands out by being raw and honest. It treats the browser as a tool for delivering information, not just a canvas for art. For a system engineer, this feels like the right approach.
