The overall look of the site, leads one to think that the sites design may have indeed been created on construction paper and that mock-up scanned in. More than likely though, the designers dug deep into their photoshop "trick-bag" of brushes and plug-ins to create the carefree digital surrealistic look.
The layout comprised of two major exstensive sections, the header and footer starkly contrast one another. Yet both seem to be sharing the common gray paper-like background, with the footer section having a wide brush stroked, dark gray texture. Giving the footer the look of an artistically rendered driftwood paneling.
The extensive header potion of the page resembles a gray fibrous paper, complete with coffee stains.
The header takes up various portions of the screen depending on the layout for that page, giving a variety of "looks" to the site. Pages with extended headers have two trees on the lower right, illustrated in abstract, with the roots of those trees extending as dotted-lines with arrows into the footer portion. Creating a certain connectivity & symmetry to the information in the header & footer, and creating a unified theme of growth + structure, albeit "earthy".
The background for content when it is shown in the header section uses transparency to allow the background image to show through, grunging up things nicely.
The "Pulpsters" have done themselves proud with this new earthy realigned-redesign. The site exudes a certain amount of cheerful charm & color, while focusing on just what ElectricPulp does, and does quite well. "They build websites that make you smile."
