This is possible to implement - but updating it or making it displayable, readable and presentable in multiple, adjustable screen sizes is another thing entirely
I wish we could do more with stylized web design but there's a reason you don't see more unique designs like this one today - it's just impractical on any realistic timeline to maintain. If we all had the same sized phone and laptop with zero variation in resolution or screen size it would be a completely different story
Mobile websites should not be the same as PC websites. The worst thing about the iphone was making people think that everything should be compatible with phone screens. If they want to support mobile, it should be on a totally different site.
60-80% of web traffic is mobile/tablet so you have to design websites that look good at 1920px and at 720px width, especially because Google will dumpster your site if you don't have a mobile version.
It's the normie factor and it sucks, it's like that with formats for videos these days, if you want the largest audience possible you have to cater to the lowest common denominator and that's very often the dipshit who has a phone addiction and is constantly scrolling through youtube and TikTok looking at 1 < minute videos while they're on the train or at work.
You'd be surprised, I do know a thing or two about this having been dealing with UI myself recently as part of my work. I do agree with you though it's trickier with irregular shapes and the like but it's a question of how much effort the UI designers and programmers are willing to put into it and most don't see the point even though it does make you massively stand out if you do put the effort in.
I do like a simple UI, partly just from a utility perspective especially if it's something I use every day. If however I want to be entertained I appreciate it when someone goes the extra mile. You don't have to rely on irregular shapes though to make interesting buttons, sometimes it just takes good drawing skills, paper's please is a great example of that.
To be completely fair...

Aren't there ways to have a diff version of the website display for phone vs PC browser?
My Monitor was 800x600 back then. When I switched to LCD, I used portrait mode for browsing. Excuses are not the same as valid excuses.
That's a thoroughly depressing stat.

Nothing worth doing is easy.
