Facebook facelift

November 4, 2009 @ 7:36 pm

This is a neat personal project by Barton Smith of We Are Thinking Out Loud of Sydney, Australia.

Barton took it upon himself to redesign the Facebook experience with a completely revamped interface and navigation system inspired by Skimmer. The new design he made looks much more fluid than the current Facebook site and mimics some of the side-scrolling functionality present in the current iPhone Facebook application.

One of my favorite parts of the redesign is the events/calendar page (see below) which I think would be a great addition to the current Facebook site. I wonder if anybody at Facebook is seeing Barton’s work.

Check out a demo video of the new Facebook facelift below.

Take a look at the slightly refreshed Google homepage with larger buttons and a larger search box. I like it!
