Why reinvent the wheel, until we have looked at all of the work already done. There is more to the design that most of us use now a days then the size of the board that L.L.L. had on hand at the time of construction. Modifications have been made to make th "modern" hive user friendly, for the bees and us.
So, if you want something different, look to the past. There is a wealth of past examples to choose from as far as different designs are comncerned. And you don't have to pay anyone to design them. All you have to do is look for the illustrations.
Let me start you search by recommending Diderot's Encyclopedia of 1660(?), I'm not sure of the year. Great illustrations. The pictures aren't in French. But the text is.
Have fun doing as little work as possible.
