ZEEKR unveils new 001 design refresh with 900V architecture, 7-minute charging ![](https://m.stacker.news/111159) Chinese EV brand ZEEKR has announced a new design refresh to its flagship 001 EV model – the second in as many years. This latest upgrade to the 001 features ZEEKR’s 900V architecture, enabling better performance and some of the fastest charging speeds we’ve seen. The interior also appears quite cozy, allowing for a starry night setting on the panoramic roof. If you know anything about the EV brand ZEEKR, you’ve probably heard of the 001 shooting brake EV. The flagship EV initially debuted in April 2021 and found early success in China before expanding its availability to new markets in Europe. By 2023, the 001 has contributed to 64% of Zeekr’s annual global sales, including a high-performance quad motor variant called the 001 FR that was introduced in 2023. However, ZEEKR began selling a new model called the 007 in January 2024, which immediately overtook the 001 in popularity. As a result, ZEEKR introduced a 001 refresh in February 2024, which offered customers new, lower-priced trims, plus improved performance. Even after the refresh, ZEEKR’s other models, like the 007 GT (which features newer tech at a lower price), continue to outsell the 001. So, ZEEKR has gone back to its design lab and introduced yet another 001 refresh for 2025, a much bigger overhaul. ![](https://m.stacker.news/111158) ![](https://m.stacker.news/111160)
Making useful filters https://uxdesign.cc/making-useful-filters-24a841dc4aab ![](https://m.stacker.news/111156) ## Filters can make or break your UX, and designing them is not as straightforward as you might think. A lot has been written about filters in the context of the user’s journey, complex enterprise software, UI patterns, and UX patterns. Surprisingly, there’s little to nothing written for designers about the logic of how filters work, outside the realm of engineering articles. Which is a shame, given how important they are for the user’s experience. If you don’t understand the logic behind how filters affect results, your designs will be limited to just visuals, you’ll be shifting a critical part of the user experience to engineers, and you won’t be able to discuss tradeoffs if needed.
@deSign_r brings wisdom: "THE STACKER (a remastered horror movie poster)". Authentic at its finest. Get inspired by its #designThinking:
THE STACKER (a remastered horror movie poster) Same colors, a bit of imagination, similar fonts, and a pinch of fantasy, brought me to redesign a version of the poster for THE SHINING, remastered for SN: now starring @k00b, @DarthCoin, @siggy47, @Undisciplined, @Coinsreporter, @grayruby, @kr, @ekzyis and @MaxAWebster. A str-lightning laser eyes for the striker couldn't be missed. ![](https://m.stacker.news/111018) ## Saul Bass & Stanley Kubrick: the creative battle for THE SHINING's poster While doing some research for my next [31-Word Horror Movie Review]() [entry]() and find out some interesting stories behind the production of this cinematographic masterpiece. Skipping all esoteric symbolism cautiously embedded on each scene, the most interesting pick was that the process to design this original poster, designed by Soul Bass, has been like a ping pong game with the director Stanley Kubrick with more than 300 backs and forwards. They got cough on an illusionary-endless feedback loop[^1]. That's why probably the result has been just impactful as the movie itself. Previous entry here [^1]: link above:
