How does a white field fit on a black background?

Question

User interface

I am doing my first job (portfolio, not commercial). He says so - I stuff my hand.
Faced such a situation - a white field on a black background. I can't understand if such a combination (a white field on a dark background) is acceptable on this page?

Answer 1

The black background itself is darkness. Even for promo sites.

Answer 2

There are plenty of other problems here.
1. The avatar circle anchors too much, you need to make the figure simpler - a square. And the face itself is enlarged, now the avatar has ceased to be something foreign
2. You must immediately take into account different reviews: long, short. You have the same plates on the layout, but in reality this does not happen, unless the reviews are fake
3. You need to immediately take into account the width of 320 for iPhone 5, for example, so that the design is stable on any screen.
4. In the review itself, you can make a structure: text, factoid quote, author, photo. In principle, this is for the eyes. Any entities such as icons of social networks can be removed. The name of the author and there will be a link to the original review or to the page. + Keep in mind that reviews are not only from social networks, this is another reason to abolish icons. +If there is no quote-footnote, it becomes even more interesting and organic, because the cards now alternate in width, without a footnote it will become narrower.
5. We remove the main one, align the menu to the top line of the logo font. We make links links. We stick the navigation with the logo to the left edge, the phone and personal account to the right.
6.

In short, the "Request a call" button should invite you to click it, and in your project it should be given second place.

She owes nothing. We make all secondary links as unobtrusively as possible and link to the phone (which, in fact, could be shown)
The focus is not on the flower, but on the face.

The black background itself is darkness. Even for promo sites.

There is no such thing as black being bad and light being good. Everything depends on the situation. It's like saying that red and green don't go together and you can't use 10 fonts on a site.
a) you don’t need to bold anything
b) you don’t need a light gray background, but you need a dark gray background and a light gray font (but in my version you can even make white dice and it won’t be dumb) You can even go further and code reviews with colors :
7) We make authorization unobtrusive: we remove the round avatar, leave only the name and, possibly, the icon-indicator of the transition to the personal account (I took the shitty one from the flatpic)
8) Benefit: the button to leave a review, the number of already left ones + a short description legend for the page. Now if you make a little noise in the background in the form of a photo of a flower, then nothing terrible will happen.

Answer 3

The designer drew small white blocks against a large black screen. What did he get? Contrast that hits the eyes. Very strong emphasis on these blocks. Such that he calls for attention and at the same time causes irritation. Is this technique suitable for blocks with reviews? No. Could this technique be useful for something else? Maybe. It all depends on the destination.
