50 Times People Encountered Such Bad Designs, They Just Had To Share (New Pics)
Designing a product, ad, or building is far more difficult of a challenge than you might think. Sure, you could argue that human beings are instinctively artistic and love aesthetics, but the sad truth is that there are far (far!) too many design fails out there. I’m not going to lie, sometimes they keep me awake at night. Thinking about them is both hilarious and terrifying at the same time. And the most powerful pics tend to haunt you for weeks and sometimes months at a time. Good design, why are you so rare?
One of the best places to find some outstanding examples of double-plus-ungood designs is this subreddit right here which shames and pokes fun at them for our amusement. Have a look through some of the best (worst?) design disasters that they featured recently. Remember to upvote the ones that you loved to hate the most and I’d absolutely love to hear which of these were your (least) favorite!
Pssst, Pandas, we know how much you love looking at epic design fails and aesthetic apocalypses, so we cordially invite you to check out Bored Panda’s earlier posts about them after you’re done enjoying and criticizing this list. You’ll find the articles here, here, and here.

Inaccessible design is so common and it wouldn't take much thought to change it
Or much effort either. They could attach an add-on ramp now—-temporarily—-then redo the whole thing as a concrete ramp later, when the budget allows.
Load More Replies......and if the button activates the right hand door, there's no way for a wheelchair to get around it. Quite an impressive fail, really.
Yeah, a great way to trap kids in wheel chairs who will have to yell for help...they won’t even be able to turn around and take the added off-ramp! Jumping Jesus, this is diabolical! Disabled kid yelling Help Me! What a great look! 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
Load More Replies...This is illegal in the US. The ADA (Americans With Disabilities Act) states that "covered entities" must provide a way for people with wheelchairs, walkers and crutches to enter. Source, me...and the ADA.
It is, you're right. I just wish it were actually enforced. As a part-time wheelchair user myself (chronic illness), I can't even begin to explain how inaccessible EVERYTHING is! I really didn't get it until I experienced it.
Load More Replies...I’ll wager, no one with accessibility issues was consulted about the design this entrance, or rest of the building.
You can almost guarantee it. Also no one had any handicapped close friends or relatives.
Load More Replies...And here we are, 48 years after The Disabilities Act was signed, still waiting for equal access and opportunities.

Load More Replies...The subreddit that makes fun of bad designs is a goliath on Reddit with a whopping 2.6 million members. The online group has been active since January 2011 and has become a true pillar of design discussion online, ranging from the silly and fun to the in-depth and serious.
Over the last two years alone, the subreddit grew by nearly a million members from 1.7 million adoring fans. Back then, they were getting 2 million page views per month. That’s proof enough of their popularity.
Great Image To Help Your Kid Not Freak Out While Getting A Haircut

Women's Jeans, I Want The Rest Of My Pocket
Jeans by Boeing: We give you the whole pocket but you have to pay extra to unlock it.
But if women loaded their pockets with things, that would destroy their silhouettes and curves which are there for men to admire ! /s
"If we let women have pockets, next thing you know they'll want to be allowed out of the house, and be given the vote, and to have jobs that pay the same as men, and who knows what other *crazy* demands!!"
Load More Replies...If you want it bigger, unpick the stitches. At least they left the fabric!
Have to be careful though. Sometimes its attached to the outer stitch & it you undo that, you now have a giant slit on your side! Lol!
Load More Replies...I'm not sure this is a small pocket at all. The stitch line looks like it's just where the fashion fabric facing is stitched.
Could be, but on the other hand, why such a random photo if it is so?
Load More Replies...*Whips out pocket knife, yells "NO MORE!" and cuts that stupid thread*
This is so annoying - many women's pants or skirts/dresses don't even have pockets, and if they do, they are often more for show than function. Grrrrrr.
Striped Carpet On Hotel Stairs. Hard To Use Even After Two Weeks And Completly Sober

This is one of those occasions where going down the stairs seated on your behind is acceptable as a grown up.
I previously spoke to a member of the subreddit’s moderator team to learn a bit more about their community. One of the mods told me previously that the “original motivation” of the subreddit was to “point out” horrible designs.
“Nowadays, most subscribers probably come here for entertainment. However, it is common to have meaningful discussion here on why or why not something is [bad] design,” the mod told Bored Panda.

Load More Replies...We might intuitively understand what good design is, however, it’s a real challenge to get the design just right. It’s not just about beauty or function, however (though these are vital, too!). The idea of good design goes deeper still.
For instance, researcher Don Norman believes that the essence of design is… communication. “Design is really an act of communication, which means having a deep understanding of the person with whom the designer is communicating,” he writes in ‘The Design of Everyday Things.’

'Wait, what? Metal gets hot under the Sun? Shouldn't we use a different material?'
Same/reverse problem here in Montréal: metal benches in bus shelters. Try sitting on that in the winter. It hits minus 30-40 celcius. Or just sitting on that wearing a skirt any other time. Eeeeeeek!
I wonder how many people have a crosshatch pattern permanently branded into their butt cheeks?
Just like those dark colored statues in zoos and parks- Do NOT let your kids touch them in the summer or set them on one for a pic! They can get seriously burned. Test it with water or your own hand, not your young child's bare legs!
Why Is Clear A Green Button While Enter Is Yellow? I Kept Accidentally Clearing My Pin
This is also not ADA compliant as the center 5 button is required to have a raised braille bump to indicate the center of the key pad. ADA chapter 707
Same counterintuitive design at some checkouts. The red button on the credit/debit card machine, which you would think would be to cancel the transaction, is for using your card as a debit. Why not a blue or white button with a D on it to indicate debit?
I was going to say the same. I figured they both were yellow, but one side is a bit dirty, so it isn't as bright.
Load More Replies...So many days ruined here. "Do I press green or do I press enter?"
According to Norman, design doesn’t have to be complicated. He argues that usability is just as important as aesthetics. Or, in other words, the product has to be functional and useful, not just a pretty thing to look at.
Norman explains that product design cannot ignore the needs of users. In the book, he argues that good, usable design is entirely possible, not just a dream conjured up by idealists.
“The rules are simple: make things visible, exploit natural relationships that couple function and control, and make intelligent use of constraints. The goal: guide the user effortlessly to the right action on the right control at the right time,” he writes that some products are able to satisfy customers’ needs while others only end up frustrating them.
This Sign At The Akron Zoo That Looks Like A Man Peeing In His Own Face
Maybe it's one of those exercise trails that you are supposed to stop and do some certain exercise by each sign? (Not that I would know anything about this.)
Load More Replies...Stolen from reddit: This zoo has signs all over encouraging you to exercise. While you’re already walking around a zoo. That’s on a huge hill. The coolest part about This zoo is the fun slide by the otters.
13, this wasn't stolen from Reddit; BP collects things from other places (Reddit, Instagram, Twitter, etc.) and posts them here. It's a curated collection, which is helpful for people who don't participate in those sites or want to wade through everything just to find something interesting.
Load More Replies...Oh, I think I just got it! When your back is bothering you and you put your hands sorta on the back of your hips and do that funny twisting stretch round and round at the waist?
Yeah, anyone who's had to have therapy for their back recognizes the motion of hip rotation, and that broken line indicates rotation.
Load More Replies...😳😂 Ok, I actually have an Akron zoo membership so I'm going to have fun with this sign now!
Load More Replies...I think you have to stand in the middle of the woods and exercise your torso!
Load More Replies...What is the sign trying to convey? does any one know? Doesn't seem to translate at all in Google Translate.
Every so often there is a stretch or excercise to do, it's called parcours, not the extreme stuff some people do. . This is to stretch around your waist and back. Lean forward and circle left, back, right and forward. Then reverse. The Akron zoo is small and a membership is cheaper than the gym. A lot of people go just for walking and exercise. The animals and clean bathrooms are bonus.

Seen this one before. This is the only design the council approved after years of fighting and rejecting many much more sympathetic ideas. It's an episode of George Clarke's Restoration Man
Well it was in Scotland after all. We have very incompetent councils up here.
Load More Replies...I watched this episode of Restorationan. It was the only design which I absolutely hated. It was such a pity the original design was stopped but it was a big mistake to paint it blue.
Maybe they painted it blue to highlight the glaring stupidity of the council.

Easy Way To Piss Off A Mailman
"yes, this is the mail man, I'm dropping all your packages in the gas station good luck"
Big pile, let them sort it out. Our mailman used to drop anything without the apt # to us even though I've lived here forever. I don't see a problem.
Load More Replies...I was a postal delivery person for 30 years. I know of one area where there were 4 streets with same street name and numbering scheme. The only difference was Pl, Ct, Ln, and St. The regular carrier could keep it straight as he knew the customers but they could always tell when there was a substitute in the area.
This looks like a trailer-home community, and the streets are likely much closer together than they are on the rest of the county grid. Where I used to live we had fractional streets for that purpose, 8 1/2 Street, for instance. Other places were a bit smarter and blocked the whole county off in 1-mile increments*100, and gave them round-number street names, so it would be 850th street instead.
Load More Replies...Reminds me of Atlanta. I believe they have 40+ streets with Peachtree in the name.
I live on Peachtree. Off a different Peachtree. I can see a completely different Peachtree out my rear window. And I can walk to yet another one down the street.
Load More Replies...The fact that they named a bunch of relatively straight roads curve is the most mind bending.... not boulevard? Road? Place? Street? It's somehow more infuriating than if they had gone with court or crescent because those would just be lies at least.... this is like sure but like.. ..... barely
When you first encounter Arlington, VA, you're like... cool! All the names are in alphabetical order! Then you find out that N Lincoln St., Arlington, VA exists as 13 chunks. FOUR times, it becomes Monroe St. Three times, you have can turn from N Lincoln Street onto N Lincoln Street. This is just within two miles. And don't even get me started about the fact where Southbound Chain Bridge Rd heads roughly northwest and the sign says "Chain Bridge South ->" even though the Chain Bridge is in the opposite direction.
Having driven in Arlington VA more times than I'd care to be reminded of this about 1000% correct. Next best option is DC with its weird traffic circles with stop lights
Load More Replies...haha I know where that is... Mounds View Minnesota just like 15 mins outside of Mpls/St. Paul yes it's a trailer park
Cape Coral, Florida is like this, with a kicker: they have these canals everywhere that force the street to dead end at the canal but pick up on the other side as if nothing happened. No bridges. If where you want to go is on the other side, you have to backtrack and go around. Most frustrating thing ever!
I always thought it would be fun to create names for streets. This street namer puts the 0 in effort!
A Speed Bump On An Downhill Slope With No Drainage?
Plus if you go fast enough you can clean the undercarriage too.
Load More Replies...Doesn't look like a speed bump it looks like a grade change to keep the crossing level
What I hate about raised crossings (apart fron acting like a dam) is there there is no 'barrier' between pavement, road and the crossing. People, usually on their phone just tend to walk out without even checking for traffic. At least with a standard unraised crossing there is that 'barrier' as in change of level that makes people more aware when crossing roads.
There's a parking lot next to our office that floods like that every time it rains, and stays so for days, it's amazing.

Roxy, I don't know why, but I googled "Italy No. 6095" and came up with a cabin number for a cruise that, among other places, goes to Italy.

Load More Replies...I know it sounds crazy, but maybe (MAYBE!!!) a few of these signs would not be necessary.
But then someone might park btwn the no parking signs thinking its ok 👀
Load More Replies...It looks like this was taken in northern Florida. I drove to WPB, FL recently and along the highway on I95 they had this. It went on for at least a mile. The reason they have this is truckers park alongside the road to rest at night but the homeowners had a problem with this because were "worried" about noise and pollution. But the officers said they don't enforce it because they would rather have rested drivers than truckers falling asleep on the wheel and crashing into others.
As a homeowner along such a road, I'd for sure worry about the TRUCKERS and not the rest of the traffic. (Although I do get teh pollution-problem.... There's some places truckers regularly rest and it is filthy as f*ck. Wrappings, food, bottles - some of them clearly used as emergency-toilets. FFS, at least empty that pee out of it , if you absolutely have to throw the bottle out. So people who want to clean up don't have to handle your urine, you filthy humans!)
Load More Replies...Much More Convenient!
Well...if you actually think about it...its not. The scanning leads you to the mall's website, which shows their hours. However, the more traffic a webpage gets, the more advertisements they can get and the more money they make through web traffic. Every scan counts as a view. It is a "smart" way of getting large amounts of views to a website that otherwise would probably go underutilized.
Load More Replies...If this is recent, then they've probably been changing their hours of operation frequently and just got tired of updating the sign each time.
All of these are just a subtle way of telling poor people you're not welcome. No smart phone ooooh no menu or even hours for you.
You know i hate these! I'm carrying an older smartphone (not all smartphones can read that) and i was so frustrated the two times i went to a restaurant cause it was impossible for me to see the menu! I understand the necessity but some people cannot use that!
Load More Replies...During COVID, the mall hours probably changed every few days as restrictions changed. They saved paper by not printing new signs each time.
Thats what the sign says, that mall haour may vary.
Load More Replies...Yes hours should be posted printed out. Menus I’m okay with this, but post your hours please. Think smarter, not harder.
having customers scan a barcode with a device they already own IS smarter than changing 2 dozen signs every time the pandemic changes your hours.
Load More Replies...This is very common during the pandemic. The restrictions comes without much notice, and changes often, which makes it too wasteful to change the signs every time.

Practical Bathroom
So the sink is downstairs? the bath in some sort of weird glass upstairs nook and the toilet in the cubby beneath? Wow
lovely (sarcsam) why can i just imagine inviting a friend over and walking down the stairs and there's my dad on the toilet? why does that come into mind?
Those curtains are for privacy so you can show off while taking a bath but close them when you use the toilet.
Load More Replies...Well, at least it has some kind of curtain, so no one can see while you use the bathroom, or take a bath in your incredibly tiny bathtub. I'm more curious about where the door is at. I'm not seeing it

I actually kinda like this design. I like how the entire windows have curtains honestly. It's a soaking tub so I like that it's in a private little nook up in a little nest .... Looks like the person who owns this place was going for a secluded nook to enjoy their cozy soaks in their bath. I personally approve of this one myself 🙂
How On Earth Can The Overpass Be Flooded?!
it's not that it's flooded. normally, it's kept frozen, so pedestrians can glide smoothly and swiftly and safely above the busy streets below. unfortunately, the cooling unit ran itself out of control--probably a compressor issue-- and my dad's kind of busy down at Darin's working on the walk in. He said he'll swing by when he gets done...

A Very Easy To Read Graph About Texting While Driving? Found In My High School Yearbook
Or you could read the question as "Do you either a or b?" Yes, I do one of those.
Load More Replies...Do you text while driving? 19% Yes Do you wait until you get to your destination 81% No. Conclusion: 81% is lying.
The only way this could be more wrong is for the number not to add up to 100!
It shouldn't add up to 100. Survey results from yes/no questions never add to 100. There are always some people who don't answer. Adding to 100 is the thing that most obviously shows this graph to be a fabrication.

This Bench Has A Fountain For A Backrest
The sad thing is this HAD to go through multiple levels of planning and approval without anyone thinking this was an issue
No, the truly sad thing is that someone went and got a university degree to design this and some else went and got a degree to approve it.
Load More Replies...Yeah that’s just a thing to keep people out of the fountain, it’s not a bench.
Load More Replies...If I ever run for local government I'll do it on a platform that every Item or facility approved has to be used by the designer, the approver, the builder and their entire families at least once per day for a month. Whether it is a park bench, an on-road bike lane, traffic calming measures, weird intersections, etc.
Another homeless deterrent. Not saying that is how it was designed, but it would certainly function as such.
Usually when homeless use the parks, etc. most of them leave a mess, for OTHERS to clean up. That’s the biggest reason for THRSE deterrents!!
Load More Replies...It DOES keep you cool after you’ve sat on the metal bench a few pics up. Turn that frown upside down!
There's another one right next to it, without the water. I'm not sure this is even a real bench for sitting on.

Our Baker Is A Clown!
Having taken on work like this before, I know we are given templates that show all the areas that get cut out or covered up on each panel when designing vinyl wraps. Areas that can have images and text, as well as panels that can only have flat colour. Someone made a conscious choice to put her there knowing full well her nose would be a break light :D
Imagine being this woman, living in this city and having to take these buses with your giant photo on the back, and a red shining traffic light nose on your face. I would be seriously pissed off.
This Speed Hump They Installed In Front Of My House Is About As Useful As A Perforated Cereal Bowl. People Just Drive Down The Middle Of The Road To Avoid It
Yes, the gap is so emergency vehicles don't have to slow, but this type is generally installed on busy roads where oncoming traffic forces you onto the hump on your side to slow you down
Load More Replies...That’s the problem with ‘sleeping policemen’ (UK term). They are in place to prevent speeding, but this also affects the emergency services, which I believe is the reason why there are such gaps. Yes, you could swerve out of your lane to go through the gaps, but that would only be viable if there wasn’t another vehicle coming from the other direction.
Expounding slightly. In the UK, if there is an emergency vehicle speeding to its destination, it is common courtesy to pull over and let the vehicle through, hence why they can just drive through the middle. I’m sure this courtesy also applies to other countries, but probably not all countries.
Load More Replies...Can't tell the height of that one, but we have a similar idiotic design in the UK with two raised squares. They seem to be intended to allow you drive over them whilst only touchin the sloping edges with your tyres. You can tell how many vehicles catch them by the scrapes on top of the leading edge. 4x4s just drive over them like there is nothing there. I either have to put one wheel over them or drive down the middle of the road, as I prefer my sump to have oil in it.
Good gawd, I hate these things. Have to drive over a few on a road with a 40 MPH speed limit. Traffic comes to 10 to 15 MPH to go over them which stalls traffic which got us rear-ended. Didnr hurt us though. 18,000 lb truck vs. a 5,000 lb car...truck wins. Feel bad for the car owner though. Complete loss od his car.
This is disgusting...hinting at trauma to sell something. I wish BP could develop a mechanism by which these bots would be intercepted and eradicated.

Bought An Automatic Soap Dispenser. It Could Not Resist Water And The Batteries Rusted
I use these and noticed the newer ones all are becoming rechargeable. Probably for this reason?
Or, hear me out here, use a rubber seal on the battery compartment
Load More Replies...All this effort of manufacture, only to be thrown away because of poor design. A simple bar of soap would of been much more environmentally friendlier.
Yes, Grant, but you only find out after purchase, so they got the money from you. Their mission is accomplished...environment be damned.
Load More Replies...Because the manual ones don't have 4 batteries that you must change every 6 days. There are some reasons why you should be thinking about buying stuff that isn't destroying our eco-system.
I wanted to replace my 6AA battery-powered salt & pepper grinders; reviews for the new rechargeable grinders were not good, so I got manual grinders (squeeze like a hand exerciser).
Load More Replies...The Designer Were On Something
Not a design flaw, and installation flaw. The unit should be rotated 90 degrees.
You can't rotate the faucet 90 degrees with this sink. It's just a matter of choosing the wrong model of faucet for this sink.
Load More Replies...Im pretty sure that the bottom part is rotatable and the photo was set up
That can be rotated. There's a little flap on the back of the handle that you pry open, then loosen a bolt underneath.
Thanks for the info, Seabeast. But wouldn't it have just been better to design it so that it didn't have to be rotated in the first place? Or am I just being pedantic?

This Uncomfortable Cup Which You Can't Hold Without Touching The Hot Side
Well, the water glasses aren't Mason jars so they're not complete heathens.
This is an Ikea cup. Indeed the handle is a bit short, but I didn't burn my fingers with hot coffee.
I have seen cups where the heat doesn't refer into the handle; perhaps this is one of those...?
Either way, if you're holding it, you're gonna have to touch the cup.

It makes it dangerous for all around them. So irritating!

Yes, during games the audience enters dierctly by the goals, so everybody gets a chance to catch a ball by themselves.
Load More Replies...Plus are reeeeallly HARD when you fall into them too. Wonder how many injuries they caused before they were removed.
this looks scary, if someone falls or slips he or she may get hurt so bad by the fence whether head or teeth
There's a place like this on one of the close-by schools around here. It's actually very helpful, since the goaly once he let the ball through can go and get it better than if he were to run all around to the offical exit. And no, nobody gets hurt from those 'cages'. It's so the ball stays inside and no vandals cut the nets at night. It works fine, kids love it. considering the concrete-ground and plastic-grass (at our place , it's synth-grass, too), you wouldn't throw yourself after the ball anyway.
