    I wonder why they chose such a small max-width. To optimize across all screen sizes?

      I've actually started to do this as well, I think it provides a good parity between small and large screen sizes. But, I don't like that they haven't constrained their header width at all. Bothers me when content is restricted and headers / footers are not.

        Is your max-width usually this small?

        The headers/footers are contained for me, at least on Chrome. I do like how some of the shapes float beyond the boundaries of the content.
