It's funny that the people who designed this monstrosity of a web page feel qualified enough to advice other people about design.

The person you are asking did not say anything about new design trends.
But anyway, if one is calling this page a monstrosity, then it seems in bad faith for you to ask that question on the same line where you call its designers "qualified enough".
Would you consider an answer that excludes anyone who thinks that these designers are qualified? Would you consider any answer that disagrees with your assessment, or have you already made up your mind?
