Just a pity I can't recommend it because 'ukehunt' is such a naff schoolboy joke. I kicked the sides out of my cradle laughing it's so old! Apart from the title well done. Great site.

The name "Uke Hunt" though is quite shockingly offensive. Deliberate? Really lovely looking site – nice one! The name “Uke Hunt” though is quite shockingly offensive. Deliberate?

The shapes evoke the 1950s second-wave revival while still being contemporary, and it's not remotely Hawaiian, hurrah. Good colour palette too.
