Hi there,
I am trying to start up my own company. And I would like some feedback on my website.
- My main activity would be Product Design, but it would be my goal to also combine it with design of packagings and websites for these products.
- My site is in Dutch because, so don’t mind most of the text.
- I actually choose to go with a very basic design for my website, because I would like the focus of my website to be on my projects. And I also like to aim for more serious clients that are more focussed on creating products for mass production.
- I also like to know if the website loads fast enough?
Hopefully you guys can give me some usefull feedback.

Well, truthfully. If you decide to exclude any non-dutch speaking clients through going with a dutch exclusive website, then I feel excluded as well and don’t feel like looking at it.
I am pretty certain this goes for a lot of people here.
In an international design world, not going with English or at least having an English option, is a very short sighted idea. Especially in the Netherlands, where people are generally quite proficient in English.
Thanks, I was already thinking about adding a english version to my website. But because i couldn’t find a working plugin to manage the translations.
I am working on the translations now. Hopefully I will have them completed soon.
Hey Svenas,
I only had a quick look but these are the things that stood out to me:
- the font you’re using looks a bit pixelated and hard to read on my screen. You might want to consider a different font and slightly larger font size.
- all the elements are spaced very close together. Consider giving everything a bit more breathing space.
On the whole, I’m afraid I can’t say that your site ‘excites’ me. I realize that’s a very diffuse term. But a large part of design is presentation and I think you can do better than this. For example, do you know of any design studios with a site you really like? How do their sites compare to yours?
