“The Uncomfortable” is a collection of deliberately inconvenient everyday objects by Athens-based architect Katerina Kamprani. 

While most of product designers are often trying to make objects as useful as possible, Kamprani here does the exact opposite trying to discover the best way to annoy everyone with her creations.

    What makes me even more uncomfortable is the inversion of salt and pepper: usually, you put more holes in the salt holder, that's how you recognize the difference in case of fancy design...

    There could actually be reasons for this. Like, if you have kids that can't be trusted into a room but you wanted to be able to check in on them easily, you could leave the top one open. Or leave the middle one open to give the kids a place to play. Probably not really worth the trouble, though, I suppose.

    In theory It can work, if you use it like a flower pot. Too much water go down to the bottom. The heat of the sun warm it and became moisture. Then the moisture gets stuck in the watering head and became water again.
