24 Ridiculous Design Fails That Should’ve Stayed On The Drawing BoardProof that not every bright idea deserves to see the light of day.
I like to think of myself as someone who appreciates creativity, but even I have my limits. Sometimes a design goes so far off the rails that it makes you stop and wonder how many people signed off on it before it ended up in the real world. These are not just little mistakes either.
The best part is that we do not even have to look very hard to find them. Thanks to the internet, people everywhere are snapping photos of these questionable creations and generously sharing them for our entertainment. It is a reminder that while design can be beautiful and inspiring, it can also be absolutely ridiculous in the most hilarious way.
So sit back and enjoy this collection of design fails that really should have been left behind at the drawing board. They might not win any awards, but they will definitely make you laugh, shake your head, and maybe even feel a little better about your own questionable decisions.
After all, nothing says comfort like knowing someone else’s mistake is way worse than yours.
