What great technology or... thing, isn't there to do the wiki-redesign?

My point is that I don't think their design had the existing technology / current Wiki infrastructure in mind (and never meant to).

It was just design for the sake of design - it didn't need to be based on a MediaWiki theme or anything like that. It's just a visual representation of what 'could be'.

You are right, and that's why this is not good design.
