This is a simple enclosure style that I have found myself using a lot for different interfaces. I have designed many computer interfaces that are little more than a plastic box containing some arcade buttons and some species of controller. For instance, it can become a quick way to launch a program or send shortcut keys. Many of my designs are used by people who have low vision or poor dexterity, so large bright buttons are a win.
I like using arcade buttons to interface different things to computers because they are large, brightly colored, and designed to take a beating and have good tactile response.
However, I don't like the "ABS Project box" approach unless I am desperate - the ergonomics are bad, the look is bad, etc. I tend to favor all-rounded edges, with the buttons on an angled surface. This approach also allows for the use of raised markers or glyphs that can help someone use the device with low vision.
This generator is what I have used for several of my proj
