Fashionable Remote controls

The Minimalist and Sleek 'sPult'

— June 22, 2008 — Tech
Typically, all-in-one universal remote controls come with too many buttons and lack in the department of style. Designer Yurii Smitana Perfilov tries to overcome these shortcomings with her elegant “sPult” remote control.

The sPult sports a sleek minimal design that strips away all those unnecessary buttons. Only 6 buttons are used in the design: the TV on/off, mute on/off, and four programmable buttons.

To make up for the absence of all these butoons, Perfilov uses an iPod-ish scroll for conveniently changing both channels and audio. There are also a few indicators for active channels, favorite channels.

The result is a minimal stylish universal remote that is surprisingly intuitive.

Trend Themes
1. Minimalist Design in Remote Controls - The sPult remote control demonstrates the trend of minimalist design in the remote control industry, offering a sleek and stylish alternative to traditional button-heavy remotes.
2. Integration of Smart Technology in Remote Controls - The sPult remote control showcases the trend of integrating smart technology into remote controls, with programmable buttons and an iPod-ish scroll for easy channel and audio changes.
3. User-friendly and Intuitive Remote Controls - The sPult remote control highlights the trend of creating user-friendly and intuitive remote controls, with its simplified button layout and clear indicators for active and favorite channels.
