I love the redesigned boarding passes. I have to check mine multiple times to reread the small print before I get lost in the airport.

Russell: Well put! I love that kind of passion as well. As a designer it’s very easy to notice the bad design around you on a daily basis, and it makes you consider how much nicer the world would be if everything were well designed. I’ve used DesignBump for quite a while now, and I much prefer the redesign.

Pam: I totally agree. Everyone complains, it’s really inspiring to see people producing great solutions

Johnson: Thanks a lot, I’m glad you enjoyed it. 10Steps is still great as always

Nice one Tom! This is a fantastic post. You must have spent lots of time compiling. It is interesting to see how the famous sites look like before I know them.

I think it’s great that people took the time not just to complain, like so many do, but to actually come up with a solution to the problem – which seldom happens! That’s the hard part but it has SO much more impact to actually SHOW how it could be done better – and the results are usually pretty obvious and concrete. I hope some of the companies take the new designs to heart and use some of the features to improve their sites or boarding passes (though I won’t be holding my breath).

I love this idea that some designers get so wound up about how badly something was designed that they would spend so much time re-doing it – shows how passionate some people are about good design!

There are some great impromptu re-designs here, I’m really fond of the people that put the time in to show companies the light on their current website. Or boarding-passes, for that matter.

My favourite is designbump though; bringing a much more unique approach to the initial problems encountered.

Great stuff, cheers Tom!

A good redesign happens when no one is shocked by the outcome.

This is an awesome post Tom. Definitely inspiring. I’m actually working on a redesign for my portfolio (turning it from a one page design into an actual wordpress powered website with a blog, ect) so this is inspirational for me.
