6 Round 3
Round 3 is all about the look. Every design has the same parts inside as round 2 (5), the five boards, the power supply and the two blowers, and passes the same checks, but each one takes its style from somewhere different.
It came in two halves. First, three themed rounds of five: Neo-Braun, sysadmin and Apple. Then five batches of three, where each batch started with research into real design, and the designs came from that.
| Theme | Designs | Claude's pick | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6.1 | Neo-Braun | N1 to N5 | N2 Vitrine Tower |
| 6.2 | Sysadmin | S1 to S5 | S1 Mini Rack |
| 6.3 | Apple | P1 to P5 | P2 Clear Cube |
| 6.4 | Supercomputers | H1 to H3 | H1 Loveseat |
| 6.5 | Teenage Engineering | T1 to T3 | T2 Synth |
| 6.6 | Architecture | R1 to R3 | R1 Capsule |
| 6.7 | Nature | E1 to E3 | E3 Skep |
| 6.8 | Retro-futurism | F1 to F3 | F2 Totem |
That's thirty new designs, and with A2 and B2, thirty-two that pass every check.
