“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.

Well, this just reminds me of those stupid desk chairs in high school. Too fat to sit? OK lets bring in a special chair and desk and silently judge. LOL I'm totally over it. ...not really...

I resigned my office-job and now I am getting paid £64 hourly. How? I work over internet! My old work was making me miserable, so I was forced to try something different, two years after...I can say my life is changed-completely for the better! Check it out what i do.. http://cutt.us/laNhE
Piss off!!
I'll pay 70£ if you fuck off from internet, please.
Creative people are the best
Creative people who have a lot of time on their hands are the best :D
Of course time makes a difference, but insane creative people find time and create things out of nowhere. And are very inspiring.
More like creative people that like to fuck with others.
For sure. But those aren't creative, just stupid. No point in creating completely useless items.
I had a blast with these, so I don't think it's obsolete at all. In fact it's a great point to express a form of illustration that can annoy people. But I guess you don't really like art either. To each his own.
To be fair, everyone's life is what they make of it! :) Fun activites are healthy for the mind. These would be fun to make and give a story to tell.
these hurt to look at
this made me feel things...i fell down so much
Ha! These are great
Waste of our resources. This isn't even art.
Au contraire.
This has no purpose. I love it!
This artist's humour is priceless!! 😂
But very dark.
Warping reality, upstaging the norm... i love it!
beautiful even though not useful
Haha I love these
we already have enough useless junk destroying our environment. shit like this doesn't help.
WHY? A BIG WHY? SO IRRITATED!
The sad part is I totally want to buy a few of these as gag gifts.........
I think This Artist has quite a bit of spare time on his hands and most likely won't contribute much to saving the world. However his kreations Are Amusing AND Sometimes That's Enough!
In my dreams, everything is like this.
I'm disappointed - where is the chocolate tea kettle? XD
Reminds me of the tea party in wonderland lol
My poor OCD
Number 25 could actually be quite useful if you have to sweep or dust areas you can reach from the side but maybe not be able to reach with a normal broom or mop. Additionally, I actually think that #15 could be useful for potential spill resistance.
This is the perfect post for someone with OCD. I bet my husband would be cringing. I found it kind of artistic
Dear creator: please make a 4 piece dinner place setting. I imagine a glass with the rim bent and folded inwards. A plate made of wire screen. A bowl filled with prongs or spikes so a spoon can't get to the food. Oooooo, so many ideas, but no clue how to create them.
They are all greatly uncomfortable 😄
Wow
The uncomfortable broom would actually be good for taking down spider webs from walls. And those wine and champagne glasses are just a nice challenge :D
I hate these so much... But I love these too. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
it's fake, just 3d no worries
Love! :D
Why TTT0TTT
i don't like this
Wtf, I hate them all!!
#4 would actually work for eating soup out of, provided you used a spoon.
#24, the uncomfortable broom, is actually brilliant. think about sweeping under a book case or tv stand!
I want the double champagne glass and the mug with the sideways handle. I would use both often.
Am I the only one that would actually find 'Uncomfortable Chair #3' fun and fine to sit in?
the water can showed up twice, only 33.
Not going to lie, the thin staircase gave me anxiety..
24 looks like it's from one of those "the builder fucked up" lists
I want the triple door
funnny design
These have really satisfying designs... :o And the person who does this has a great sense of humor.
That are too Crazy
For some reason this type of art speaks to me, it's one those pieces that makes you think outside the box and question every day objects.
I like them.
I buy a lot of stuff i never use but i would buy these for art:)
I would actually buy most of these.
This person is nutso.
I love this! What a great idea and so beautifully executed
I luv all these pictures !!!
These are absolutely wonderful.
I love these. So useless and amazing
Such silly things! So funny, I love these ideas :D

Why. The. Serious. F***.
Because. And it's not like they're real products. They seem to all be 3D modeled/rendered objects (CGI).
But some of them look pretty real
