  They don't. This blog is pretty badly designed.

    Must have been designed by a developer

  Because it's lovely. Designers usually have a pretty refined aesthetic sense, and sometimes it wins out over usability.

    Yes, with all of the typographical aesthetic of something etched into granite. Reminds me of a tombstone, frankly.

  I think that's the default theme on sites built with Squarespace.
