Boarding Pass (the paper kind)
It’s amazing how often in life design can complicate things rather than being as a tool to make life easier. With the tagline “the design of your boarding pass makes me want to scratch out my eyes,” the site Boarding Pass/Fail explores the poor design of the current state of airline boarding passes and suggests some design alternatives. The project was started by Tyler N. Thompson after being bored at the airport and frustrated with the design he saw in front of him. Three of his solutions are pictured here, but the dialogue continues on his site, where other factors are brought into play and more designers provide new solutions. {Thanks, Landon!}
