The Worst Designs You Hope You Will Never Come Across IRL

We live in a world where we rely so much on architects, graphic designers, interior designers... Literally any designer you can think of who gets paid the big bucks and expect whatever they made to simply do the job. Unfortunately, they're also human and we all know no one is perfect, which is why we come together and laugh at their mistakes. Some are so awful, you'd probably assume it was an April Fool's joke.

These hilarious design fails would make you cringe, cry a little, but mostly giggle. I assure you, you'll still be laughing about these days after reading this article.
