“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.

pretty much yes, but without a stable it doesn't make that much sense.

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.
Actually, there's a daycare in my hometown that has a door like this to separate the older kids from the toddlers.
Load More Replies...Actually, I love this door. I would definitely put these in my house!!
I get the bottom doggie door then stable door then walk in the door?
That was my very first though indeed haha. Only I read the comments after that thought..
Load More Replies...for those who likes limbo games. 😂 only have to open the lowermost part of this door.
It could be for people for different heights. Or it could be a door for children who are growing up. Kind of just for fun
This is actually a good security feature with 3 doors in a door, each having a different key for the locks

The sad part is I totally want to buy a few of these as gag gifts.........
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.
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
#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?
These have really satisfying designs... :o And the person who does this has a great sense of humor.
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.
Because. And it's not like they're real products. They seem to all be 3D modeled/rendered objects (CGI).
