TAG RESULTS FOR: redesign

If you’ve followed Gearfuse for awhile, no doubt you’ve noticed changes in the last few weeks. We’re expanding on the coverage of gadgets and inventions that Gearfuse has long featured, dialing up our filters to gather a broad spectrum of amazement across science, technology, and culture. We’re asking big questions (sometimes too big!), overturning our assumptions about discovery and innovation, setting our clocks to awaken us to technology’s past as well as its future. The first change happened early in November, when I joined Gearfuse as editor and lead writer. Continue reading

Dear readers, We’re currently in the process of making editorial and design changes and we are afraid there will be no new posts this week. Starting November 8, there will be a new editorial team at the helm and we are looking forward to welcoming you in our new environment then. Thanks for coming to the site and stay tuned! Your humble servant, Steve Rufer.

We knew that MySpace had a new redesign in the works, and their redesigned logo ruffled a few feathers, but their newly revealed redesign has garnered some positive reviews from the web community. MySpace appears to be aiming at distinguishing themselves as the music/video/media sharing answer to Facebook’s TMI status-sharing privacy-crushing wall-updating ways. Topic pages will provide stylized aggregations of popular and interesting articles across the web. The new home page will broadcast real-time articles of interest as they pop... Continue reading

Imagine the reaction if something resembling the iPod was released in the 70s. People would have assumed it was some sort of extraterrestrial device. What other choice would they have? So, if the iPod had been released in the in the 70s, of course it would have looked a little different. Ok, maybe a lot different. The Pocket Hi-Fi, an artistic creation by designer Alex Varanese, demonstrates what a different turn the technology world could have taken, at least design... Continue reading

We’re not sayin’ the Mario Mushroom was in need of a makeover, but come on, there have been some pretty ugly signs of aging. A little dust around the edges. Over 20 years of power-up work will do that to you. This precious chart features some cutesy-wootsy geeky makeovers for our favorite power-up in the history of gaming. Now Mario can get back to dealing. Link [via; art by My Burning Eyes]

Erin Fong’s Nova DSLR concept reestablishes everything we thought we knew about DSLR camera design and recreates it in a novel way. The Nova features a swiveling wing-like design which makes the device more ergonomic and, all-in-all, more stable. I imagine camera shake would also decrease with this design as both hands should balance and compliment each other well.

Facebook has had the same basic design for at least a few years now. There have been small changes along the way, but for the most part, the last few years for Facebook have remained pretty standard — news feed, images and link sharing. Some might say if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, but artist Barton Smith is under the impression that the social network needs an entire facelift, let alone an update. Smith took it upon himself to...

Rich Uncle Pennybags is very pleased with this new Monopoly set designed by Andy Mangold. Look at the packaging, the card holders, the lines of hotels and such; it’s quite the work of art. I love the rustic look the box gives off of a traditional board game. You know, the kind before mass-produced plastic, etc. The final package is just over 10″ x 10″ x 1.5″ and includes smaller containers for all of the various pieces and cards and... Continue reading
