Five years ago on the show we redesigned Christmas. The whole holiday. We hired the graphic designer Michael Beirut, of the firm Pentagram, to come up with a fresh, 21st century concept that could be used – and loved – universally.
Since then we’ve done all kinds of redesigns of symbols and holidays … including the rainbow Gay Flag, Valentine’s Day, and the Monopoly boardgame.
Now we want to know what big thing you think we should redesign next. Is there a symbol, business, product, or system that demands a serious re-think?
For a refresher, check out all the redesigns we’ve done. Think big. Tell us in a comment below what you’d like us to redesign next – and explain what’s wrong with the current design.
