For minimalism to work you need strong content. This website doesn't have that. Even with strong content this design still has plenty of problems. That link hover effect is awful. It feels like I'm playing whack-a-mole. You also limited the content to a fixed height container. That would come back to bite you if page content increases significantly or average screen resolution increases. The website is also very forgettable. It has no real identity of it's own. The name isn't even in the overall template.
