Editorial Article - Redesign Concept

Today I share a quick concept of an article reading page. Last week I came across an article on a blog and honestly had troubles reading through the lines of long text. There were also confusion caused by the sorrounding overwhelming content. In the last attachment the "before" screen for comparison.

So I redesigned it just to exercise. Check the attachments in full resolution. How do you feel about it?

Keep up the great work!
