New portfolio site (part 2)

New year, new portfolio website! http://roomfive.net

I design and build, so it's important for my work (and my sanity) that I custom build my own portfolio website, showcased here. The website is of course responsive. I kept it super simple, clean and to the point. It needs to clearly communicate what I do, and share my design thinking, process and case studies. I have no interest or need for a 'personal brand' — so there is no logo or stylised photos of myself looking thoughtfully into the distance... ;) But the simple, clean aesthetic does communicate my approach to design. I love the simplicity and clarity of the Sofia Pro font used throughout, with Courier for navigational elements, because I've always appreciated it's quirkiness, which I guess represents me well :) I sparingly use a 'hot pink' throughout, chosen as it's the colour I've used for annotating wireframes and specs for several years, which I thought was a nice touch.
