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.
At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.
Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
