The premise is that web design is in a polarized state where some people are technicians with skills centering around HTML and CSS (and maybe javascript,) while others are designers with skills in more traditional graphic design like layout, typography, and color selection - and very few "web designers" have feet in both camps. And further, this might be a major reason for poor design on the web - or at least for the dearth of incredible design.

This post walks through a lot of contemporary thinking on both sides of the argument and is packed with links to other great articles and resources. Highly recommended for anyone involved in any way with web design.
