I am not really a fan of the pastel colors and the new logo. I know they were trying to make photos and such more prominent but I find it harder to navigate.
The new logo just looks like a paperclip to me.

#12Not bad, but I have to say the old design/logo/identity just seemed like more ... fun.
I agree, but I could see (for example) my parents trusting the new design more. It seems more like a legitimate short term rental service rather than a couchsurfing site.

#13I can't say I really believe in Airbnb as a company and idea, but that is a damn well designed website -- I guess you could say the best money could buy..
What is it about the company and idea which make it difficult for you to believe?

#15The change is neat, giving more room to expand towards their bigger vision. But,
what I don't understand is why the hell they moved the most important element in their site down to a secondary place ("the search").

#17The new logo looks like a spaceship ... they are preparing for selling trips into orbit.

If you've been following the commentary about the logo on Twitter, that is the exact opposite of what people immediately interpret as the symbol.

Yeah, I thought they were going to do something meaningful, like waiting at least a minute to forget the dates I've already entered at least a dozen times.

New logo, new fonts, new colors, new message. All apps and web properties skinned and released in unison.
