The sideways navigation is an attempt at de-emphasizing that content as it is not the primary focus of my portfolio. Just some add-ons that do or don't need to be explored by visitors. More of a stylistic decision than a design-best-practices concern.
And for the case studies, I found that I was delaying the release of the entire portfolio by struggling to complete the very long (but important and detailed) case studies sections. I chose to write up the short-hand versions for now while I work on the more in-depth case studies in the background. They are coming VERY soon though!
Thanks for the feedback!
