By now, it looks like crappy design is something inherently human. There's such an abundance of design fails, we'll probably never run out of it. And that's not necessarily a bad thing. I mean, is there a better way of getting your daily dose of whahahahahahaha if not judging others for their mistakes? Bored Panda has prepared another bad design list for you, poking fun at some of the most ridiculous projects that saw the light of day. From coffee mugs that were created to poke your eyes out to photography services producing outdated leaflets and beyond, scroll down to enjoy the funny fails and upvote your faves.

**gulps** And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why we do not keep wild animals as pets.

The first tiger has blue eyes, the second has brown. Is that like a thing that happens when they get older? I am genuinely curious here, does anyone know?

I think this one is a win, if the add is to not try and keep exotic wild animals as pets. Cute as kittens, bad as adults.

ui design for beginners If you are from the design field or someone who is looking to get in this field, UI Design is something that you are going to hear a lot about. Especially if you are into website making and designing, UI design is exactly what you should look for. Anything unique that your website provides, will likely draw attention to the content. But you must not forget the important parts. Your uniqueness for your website should lead the attention to the main purpose that a user is expected to fulfil. Smart Colouring Colours affect the mood of the user. The colour you choose and the way you show it on your website will speak volumes for your brand. Conclusion In the end, it’s important to remember that UI design is all about the way you represent your brand or the website. The easier it is to interact and understand the functions, the more engaging the website will be. <a href="https://imaginxp.com/courses/ux-ju

This is not the least bit funny. To have that picture taken with a tiger cub he had to be raised in captivity then taken away from his mother too early. Then in order to get them to behave the are either shaken or drugged. Then when they are of no more use they live in a cage for the rest of their life’s. This is wrong on so many levels.

So we've seen the consequences of bad design ideas, so what makes for good design? There are a few basic principles to stick to if you want to make sure your design is practical, relevant and makes sense!

According to Dieter Rams, a German industrial designer who was responsible for the design of Braun’s consumer products for many years, there are 10 principles of good product design, also known as the '10 commandments.' Even though they were written long ago and technology has advanced beyond his wildest dreams, Dieter's principles still apply today!

Furniture designers Vitsoe have worked closely with Dieter Rams for decades, and helpfully summarize his founding principles of good design with the following explanations:

Good design is innovative The possibilities for innovation are not, by any means, exhausted. Technological development is always offering new opportunities for innovative design. But innovative design always develops in tandem with innovative technology, and can never be an end in itself.

Good design makes a product useful: A product is bought to be used. It has to satisfy certain criteria, not only functional, but also psychological and aesthetic. Good design emphasizes the usefulness of a product whilst disregarding anything that could possibly detract from it.

ADVERTISEMENT

Good design is aesthetic: The aesthetic quality of a product is integral to its usefulness because products we use every day affect our person and our well-being. But only well-executed objects can be beautiful.

Good design is thorough down to the last detail: Nothing must be arbitrary or left to chance. Care and accuracy in the design process show respect towards the user.

Good design is environmentally-friendly: Design makes an important contribution to the preservation of the environment. It conserves resources and minimizes physical and visual pollution throughout the lifecycle of the product.

Good design is as little design as possible: Less, but better – because it concentrates on the essential aspects, and the products are not burdened with non-essentials. Back to purity, back to simplicity.

So three you have it, pretty simple right? If you are tasked with designing something and want to avoid the hilarious mistakes found in this list, check these principles off first and you should succeed!
