I just finished the new landing page for Monocle, my daily news reader.
What do you think?

Like the clean design @tmartty
Just a little design system twist needed. I think you might need a secondary font for body text.
Other than that, would be great to mention what news are you going to include.
Very clean! Great work
Thanks! Glad you liked it.
Hey Tomas, I like the landing page. The grey background is perfection. At risk of bursting your bubble here, I'm actually not crazy about the Monocle logotype... I think you were trying to go for old-fashioned, but it's just too much of a departure from the sleek modern look of the site. The 2D screenshot you show on the laptop might spark more interest if it were an actual screenshot of your platform with real news headlines. Otherwise, really clean page. It should do well for you!
Hey Tom, thanks for the compliments, glad you liked the landing page.
Yeah, I agree the font for the logo is not the best... I was going for a New York Times kind of feeling. What font would you recommend I use?
About the laptop wireframe, I thought maybe of adding some interaction, or maybe some real news headlines. Maybe a GIF with scrolling news? Maybe even a whole functioning demo...
There's something there Tomas.
Can I ask what the app does to make it a daily news diet app? I don't know if that's a silly question, but I thought I'd ask.
Hey Pascal, thanks for checking it out! It's an RSS reader app, which means you get to follow website updates through the RSS protocol.
You basically add the websites you open up every morning to check for updates (say YouTube, Twitter, local newspaper, tech news, sports, etc), and keep them all together there, with a handy 'refresh all' button to grab the newest content.
