I want to be able to design like this...

Seemly, you say you want to be able to design like that, but it takes years to reach that level of design inability.

For example, theres lots of standards and coding conventions to ignore, basic techniques to turn a blind eye to and fundamental principles to chuck off the cliff. The author of this site has clearly spent years not keeping abreast of internet development.

Perhaps this is how they design websites on his home planet, you never know.

What shocks me is they have the front to say who it was designed by, claiming credit for it, surely to god you wouldn't take credit for creating a site like that.

I've seen so-called (i.e. self-proclaimed) "web designers" whose portfolio sites look worse than that.

That's the problem with literally ZERO barriers to entry...

The problem also with some webdesigners is their code - many do not build with SEO in mind at all so there is 10x as much code as content on each page

Here's another "unusually" designed site: http://www.paragonkilns.co.uk/

(It has "hints" about how to actually use the site buried throughout the text on the main page, where you would expect to find links... but don't!)

It's on the first page of Google and Bing for 'student removals' with no quotes.
