As for a redesign, you are (of course) free to spend your time as you wish, but I really don't think a website redesign is something that is going to happen any time soon, and if it were to happen, there is already an artist and designer with a long history with the OpenBSD project who would probably be the one doing the work, in VERY close communications with the key person who manages the project. I rather doubt there would be any kind of public discussion or contribution to the process. Nick.
