'Who even designs these?': 20+ Design flops

The difference between good design and poor design is in the eye of the beholder. For example, let's say you want a staircase in your newly built home. How hard could that be to execute? It's probably pretty straightforward, unless you want something fancy. Maybe you're a wealthy multi-millionaire with money to burn and a desire to impress your artsy friends. Then perhaps you give your designers some artistic leeway. 

It's shocking how many interestingly designed staircases are out there in the world. I'm fascinated by the staircase of stone (see #10). It's a regular-looking wooden staircase covered in smooth stones like you'd find near a lake. Not just one or two rocks, but dozens cover this staircase, leaving a single winding pathway down. There are no railings. If you fall, that's on you, buddy! I wonder if the rocks are glued down, or if a swift kick could turn one into a projectile. It just seems like such a bad idea… but someone thought it up and constructed it, and we're here to witness their design flop in all its glory.
