Case Study: Flight Status
How I redesign on the fly (literally)
I design everywhere. The need to constantly analyse the world around me and think about improvements has been deeply ingrained for years now.
I can’t just walk past a design. Or fly past one. Ok, enough with the jokes.
I came back to the US recently for some business meetings (and to check off some skateboarding spots). My flight from Warsaw to New York took eight hours.
While browsing through the infotainment system I noticed how oldschool it all looked. Like Flash era web oldschool. Sure — it did have some of that retro charm, but not what I would expect on a trans-continental flight. Not even close.
It kept bugging me so much that instead of watching a movie I pulled out my laptop and launched Sketch. Quickly took a photo of the original display with my phone and airdropped it to the Mac.
