C'mon, let's be honest with ourselves here -- we all think our current router (http://www.engadget.com/tag/router/) is unsightly (http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/25/linksys-router-turned-into-smartphone-controlled-doorman-video/). Like, truly hideous (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/08/d-links-dig-1320-powerline-router-eyed-at-ces/) to look at. In fact, the bulk of us spend the first 20 minutes post-unboxing trying to figure out how to best hide it. Berlin-based designers Johannes Laue and Johannes Schroth have done what should've been done by multi-national corporations years ago, with the 4010-Overdress project delivering an array of delectable wood and metal enclosures that simultaneously make your router / set-top-box beautiful while maintaining all of the core functionality. There's no indication of when (or if) these beauts will ever be produced for public consumption, but seriously, someone at Netgear or D-Link should ping these fellows as soon as possible.Conceptual 4010-Overdress router covers can't materialize soon enough (http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/02/conceptual-4010-overdress-router-covers-cant-materialize-soon-e/) originally appeared on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com) on Tue, 02 Mar 2010 07:34:00 EST.
