Design Trends Over the Years Anonymous 02/29/2024 (Thu) 15:21:18 Id: fe8074 No. 940674
Which era had the best designs for consoles? Were there any consoles released in any of these eras which did NOT display the design trends of the time? Not pictured, but I actually liked the aged "wood" design of consoles like the Atari 2600, the Odyssey, Coleco Vision, etc. I miss the boxy, utilitarian/practical designs of most things from that era, actually. And I hope that isnt just my rose tinted glasses talking again.
>>948866 Looks hideous

>>948876 Which means it did what it was supposed to do I guess.
>>948872 The explanation is that youre a zoomer.
Frutiger Aero wins overall. Memphis Design has the most SOVL, Y2K stands out but is too garish, and Flat Design is insipid rubbish made by diversity hires and talentless niggers.
>>948895 stop using that made up term zoomer
>>948797 I really doubt there will be a lot of 2010's nostalgia at least up until a certain point in the early 2010's. It's so devoid of personality that i've seen 14 year olds having anemoia for 2000's internet and making their own Neocities websites.

>>948895 >>948909 CRINGE SOUL GEMERALD KINO FOR REAL SMH NO CAP ZOOMER BOOMER DOOMER NORMIE SOULLESS SOY kill yourself please
>>948918 it wont change that fact "Frutiger Aero" is still a bad label to use
>>948925 Just use a halfchan term to describe Frutiger Aero.
>>948930 that being?
>>948909 >>948925 Frutiger Aero's consistent with the OP and unestablished terms can confuse the conversation.
>>948912 >Early 2010's nostalgia having no personality <Just like with current generation that also have no personality besides retarded TikTok trends I've seen some fags all of the sudden having nostalgia over the 2010's shitty cartoons at CN, when they started hiring delusional dipshits at tumblr through nepotism.
>>948933 >Frutiger Aero's consistent with the OP and unestablished terms can confuse the conversation. what about it is "consistent"
>>948867 Damn, that's some good shit.
>>948936 >OP literally uses the term >others use the term identically <I AM CONFUSED HOW IS THIS THE SAME THING You seem to be here solely to troll or spam. The term is a retronym, but you really have nothing to say here.
>>948872 No such thing
>>948872 >>948895 Correct. Frutiger Aero despite that name being fucking retarded, was the peak of post-millennial technology design aesthetics. >pleasant to look at >colorful but not garish >presents a generally optimistic feeling >doesn't seem pretentious >coherent design that isn't out of laziness or conformity
>>966376 Similar to Art Deco, it's a term that originated after the fact to describe a specific set of aesthetics that were popular at a point in time. While it is true no graphic designer in 2006 was setting out to make "Frutiger Aero", you can effectively apply that term to categorize a certain style.
>>966661 >flower enjoyer Based taste.
>>940674 Flat design feels like something from a dystopian future... oh wait
>>966752 Ok, I'm waiting.
>>966749 I suppose you're aware of the game Sable, then?

>>966770 You can stop waiting anon. the "oh wait" was a rhetorical device to imply that theoretical subject of the sentence was not in fact theoretical.

>>940674 I fucking MISS that Y2K style look godamnnnnnn Growing up with that as the design around the music player on a tiny computer monitor felt so cool
Where does this assdeadicks fit in?
>>966856 >by the turn of the millennium That should've clued you in that it's Y2K.
>>948925 >>966661 >Frutiger Aero It was called skeuomorphic design before some designer chick decided in 2017 that wasn't good enough. Technically skeumorphism isn't the same thing, but that's how it was used >>940735 XP only gave you 3 colour choices by default, which sucked. >>948797 Nostalgia is universal. Maybe some people are attached to the colours or animations. But I think most of them will only start caring if navigating user interfaces changes radically..
Y2K is the best, Flat is the worst.

>>966860 Doesn't look like what is in the OP at all
>>967231 1 and 2 look like those incomprehensible beings in the bible, just impossible to tell what you're looking at.
>>967198 Apple minimalism is the biggest cancer, it not only affected tech hardware and software but interior design as well.
>>967405 >it's all Apple's fault! Okay, XP fanboy.
>>967415 He's not wrong. Apple's design literally changed everything.
