70 Times Architects, Designers And Planners Messed Up At Their Jobs And Were Shamed On This Page (New Pics)
Empathy, good taste, self-awareness, and the ability to think ahead and follow through on your plans are all vital skills for architects, urban planners, contractors, surveyors, engineers, and designers. But unfortunately, some ‘professionals’ are lacking in all of these fields. And this leads to less-than-perfect cities and homes that are real eyesores.
The popular ‘[Bad] Planning’ account on X is a celebration of all the awful stuff “imposed on our environment.” We’ve collected some of the biggest, most recent architectural and design planning fails to make your inner builder gasp and cringe. Scroll down for a crash course in what not to do if you’re ever tasked with building something.

Is that meant to be a peephole or something? If so, then the problem is the fact that it's totally unnecessary, the door's made of glass.

That is indeed a peep hole. This has been on BP before. The person who posted this bought a door with a peep hole to see who was at the door but didn't realize or forgot that they were getting a mostly glass door. derp.

IIRC from previous times I've seen this, the HOA fined them for not screening the bins from view which would have the same issue even if off to the side. Problem solved!

Your designs have to be as clear as possible. The less ambiguity there is, the easier it is for everyone, from the architect to the contractors, to build something great and make their clients happy. This means that, as a designer, if you want your project to be of stellar quality, you have to put in a ton of effort to keep everyone involved in the project on the same page.
A big part of your responsibility as a designer is taking the time and energy to expand your knowledge, learning about materials, manufacturing processes, and keeping in mind any potential challenges that can happen during the planning and building process. If you can spot these problems ahead of time, you’re saving yourself a lot of money, avoiding headaches, and maintaining a good reputation. And if you’re up-to-date with the latest trends, you’re at an advantage.

When the first big shopping mall was being built near where I grew up, there was ONE family who didn't want to sell, no matter what. The mall went up right on schedule, with just this one (perfectly ordinary) house in the middle of the huge parking lot, chain link fencing around it. I haven't been there for decades, so I don't know if it's still there.

Okay, I mean... the HOW of this is pretty obvious... a crane or a hoist or something... but that still leaves us with the WHY, as the former things don't usually come free of charge.
Of course, let’s not be naive. No matter how talented and experienced you are, you can’t control every tiny little detail of the building process. Someone, somewhere, will mess up at some point in time. Maybe someone misinterprets your plans. Maybe someone else decides to cut corners, or they’re not as skilled at their job as they let on. You have to be flexible, adaptable, and react to (unpleasant) surprises.
Though your sharp mind and insights are fundamental to your job as a designer or architect, you can’t ignore your people skills either. At the end of the day, the entire project is a team effort. And if you constantly mismanage and mistreat your contractors, it’ll affect the final result. You have to treat everyone you work with with the respect they deserve, and communicate well.

Though your sense of taste can be very subjective, people can usually intuitively tell if something has been designed well or not.
Truly good design is empathetic and takes the consumer’s wants and needs into account, whether you’re talking about the building you live in or a product you’re considering buying.

As legendary designer Dieter Rams noted, good design is innovative, makes the product useful, and is aesthetic.
Truly good designs are also understandable, unobtrusive, honest, long-lasting, and environmentally-friendly.
They must also be thorough down to the last detail and, ironically, as little designed as possible.
You’re supposed to do away with non-essential details and concentrate on the main aspects of whatever it is you’re designing.

“For example, the rise of sprawling urban suburbs often means a single mother lives and works too far away from where her child attends school. Poorly maintained parks become hotspots for crime, meaning women may not feel safe going there alone. It's a similar story for entertainment and nightlife districts.

This is what you get if everybody insists on living in a single family home.

Look up "Waterzande", a new village build near where I live. If you compare "The Ponds" with how it looked earlier, it is even more awful.

The local Council allowed the 19th century dower house to be demolished because they didn't consider it to be of heritage status. They then gave planning permission for the abomination on the right.
What’s more, today’s cities aren’t as inclusive as they can be, even as they become more advanced and high-tech.
“The development process often does not include enough input from disabled people themselves. The people responsible for making city improvements might get feedback from an area's residents, but there's no guarantee that the studied segment includes the voices of people with disabilities. For example, a touch-sensitive screen for bus ticket sales might seem high-tech, but can wheelchair users with fine-motor difficulties use it?” Planetizen muses.

This isn't a City Center. Toys R Us closed it's last store in England in 2018. This is part of an abandoned retail park.

"Its". I assume that this abandoned retail park is _in_ the city center, not that it _is_ the City Center.

What's wrong with solar panels on a modern house? With this lot and batteries you'd run the house for free AND sell 50% to the grid.

Panels that cover up all almost all the windows? Not to mention it looks awful, which is the point of the list.

EVIDENTLY, "Bored Panda" staff can NO LONGER COUNT. This content for housing fails said "70 pics"-it had 90. A previous article on here said 50 pics for animal pictures--it had 87. Good thing I have time to waste.
