Konstantin Datz, a German graphic and product designer, has redesigned the classic mind game, Rubik’s Cube, so that now the sight-challenged can play it. Instead of the classic color scheme that we all know and steam over, this cube has the color names printed in Braille so that the user will know that spot’s color designation. No more colors by sight. Now, it’s colors by touch. Pretty great when we think outside of the box. The world of the Rubik’s Cube has once again expanded by the actions of one man! And he’s also designed a wristband for the hearing impaired.
Take a look around his portfolio. He’s got quite the elegant mind.
