What's wrong with the layout?

Question

Design

Good day, tell me what's wrong with the layout. The customer does not like it, but just right for me, nothing more.

Answer 1

The text looks terrible. Why are there red lines on the web? If there is such minimalism in the design, then you need a beautiful text, but yours is small and squeezed.
In addition, you are unlikely to be one of those half a percent of designers who are so elite that they can dictate their style to the client. All other designers bend to the client and always try to figure out what exactly the client does not like.

Answer 2

1. If you use minimalism - use an academic style. Left and right arrows, menu underlining, center spacing, red lines, slashed font in the menu - it is out of the academic style and out of the minimalism. Looks like a pathetic attempt to decorate with grey.
2. Such a large text, combined with minimalism and the very tone of the message, looks like "I've thrown 200 reasons why I'm not a bore." Use brevity, the main rule is to cut the text in half. And then cut it in half again - this will be the right decision.
3. The page is absolutely not informative. No one, remember - no one opens the site and reads the text in it, only bosses do this on their sites. Most often, add a description to the main page and a little history for a couple of paragraphs, then goals and mission - this is their approach. The site is viewed, and here you have nothing to stop your eye, except perhaps all on the same red lines.
4. The home page is similar to the word page. By the way, if you like red lines - they are too big in my opinion.
