Not only do the elements not respect their visual boundaries, the whole layout is cluttered, the typography a mess, the color palette is rightout ugly. Shudder. This is very much a case where less would be so much more. I really do hope the design is not an indicator of what I should expect when actually looking…

Your company's website, kaleidos.net, is down with an "internal server error". I'm curious about companies established in Spain because I'm a Spaniard that moved to Germany 14 years ago and since becoming a freelancer three yeas ago I've considered moving back there, but each time I take a close look I get discouraged. In the page footer it says that Taiga is an LLC. Does it mean that you established it in the UK? Ho…

I created a test account on taiga.io. It allowed me to use an unsafe, short password.
Looking at the UX/UI I can only reiterate; it is highly important that you work on the design (details matter) . If you can't argue why a design element is presently on the screen, remove it. Only keep what is needed.
