Either way, I don't understand what would be "productively using that extra space" . Besides, white space is one of the basic rules of design and it aims to focus on the element and allows the user to quickly scan the page. There's a reason (well, hundreds of reasons) why most sites (including this one) restrict width. If you have a different scenario where you actually need that width for something, you should edit your question and explain it | |
