I’m constantly astounded by the sheer amount of bad designs in the world. Like, how can so many people be so bad at designing things, and get away with it?
On the plus side, there are so many design fails out there, that you’re never going to run out of hilarious pics to look at. Like the ones in this list.
RELATED STORIES
“An unfortunate sink placement.”
Ah yes, nothing like having two sinks that are so close together, they can’t be used at the same time. I guess someone could use the one on the left if they wanted to stand around awkwardly.
“Free but only with a paid subscription.”
Any program that’s designed to look like it has free features, but makes you pay for everything anyway, is straight garbage in my book. Just be nice to your users, please.
“Amazing.”
I can’t tell if I love this or hate it. Like, it’s objectively very ugly. But it’s kind of ugly in a way that’s… charming? If that makes sense.
“h om eis wher ewear etoget her.”
If you don’t want to stare at this nonsensical sign for too long, then I’ll just tell you that it’s supposed to say, “home is where we are together.” If you do want to stare at it, then have fun, I guess.
“The handle to my measuring cup.”
It’s all fun and games until you accidentally fill the cup too high, and the contents end up spilling out the back. Who even designed this?
“Perfection.”
This looks like somebody used what they had without actually thinking about how it was going to look. Sometimes, an extra trip to Home Depot will have your staircase looking… well, normal at the very least.
“Who sits here?”
Judging by the music stand in there, this looks like a spot where they store things. But I have to wonder, why bother building a booth in that spot if it can’t even be used?
“Nike T-Shirt has crumbs as part of the design.”
I’m not gonna lie, I find this pretty gross. It would be like walking around with food stains all over your shirt, except the stains are supposed to be there. Just plain nasty.
“Fruit punch laundry detergent.”
I don’t think I could trust any juice that came out of a container like that. Sure, it probably isn’t laundry detergent, but I still don’t want to take any chances.
“Blursed kitten photoshopped into a blob.”
Why does it look like someone put the head of a cat on the body of a hamster or something? I’m so uncomfortable, and yet at the same time I’m kind of intrigued.
“They installed the towel bar before the sink.”
My biggest bathroom pet peeve is when the towel bar is in the wrong spot. Like, what’s the point of having one if you can’t even use it properly?
“That time in 2010 when Gap decided to ‘update’ their classic logo and then changed it back after 6 days of outrage.”
This literally looks like the went into PowerPoint — not a graphic design app, but literal PowerPoint — and slapped something together. No wonder they got shamed into changing the logo back.
“Stairs? Jairs?”
There are plenty of stairs out there with carpet or runners on them. But this… this is an abomination. No one should ever put denim on their stairs.
I don’t even want to think about what that’ll look like when it’s been walked on a few times.
“Gorgeous ship of the line etched into the bottle is covered by a sticker. The other side of the bottle is blank.”
I mean, considering the fact that it’s rum from Costco, I wouldn’t really expect too much from them. Maybe this is just a labeling error, though?
“That’s Chicago.”
Ah yes, Chicago, New York. That totally makes sense.
Either the person who made this was trolling, or they’ve literally never been to New York (or Chicago) before.
“The more I look at this house, the worse it gets.”
I would love to tell you exactly what’s wrong with this house, but it’s all of it. There isn’t a single part of this exterior that looks good. I need to look away before my eye starts twitching with rage.
“Mug that can’t be placed on its bottom. No, there is no base that comes with it to place it on, it’s only the mug, I’ve asked the vendor.”
Nothing like a mug that can’t stand on its own to keep you on your toes. Either you finish that drink in one go, or you’re going to be carrying around a mug of hot liquid for a while.
“How are you even supposed to read this?”
It reads, “Minneapolis.” But, like, badly. I’m sure there were better ways for the people who made this clock to put the text on there, but they clearly didn’t have any better ideas.
“Each card has a unique design on the back!”
This seems really nice in theory, until you realize that you can never play a game of cards with this deck because it’s obvious which cards you have. And if they’re just for show, then what was the point of having the suits on them?
“Got given a measuring tape without measurements.”
I’m really hoping that this is just a defective measuring tape, and there isn’t someone out there trying to sell blank ones. Because that would be really pointless.
