20 Construction and DIY Flaws That Lack All Common Sense

If you pay attention to your surroundings, you are likely to discover a series of design choices that make absolutely no sense. You know, the kind of aesthetic decisions that make you wonder who in their right mind signed off on this? You might stumble upon these design and structural flaws on the street, in a public restroom, or even in your friend's house.

Sometimes, these flaws are too hard to ignore. I distinctly remember touring the so-called "perfect apartment" and informing my roommate that there was no way we could move in there because of the bizarre bathroom layout. Perhaps some folks present thought I was being too critical, but once I demonstrated that there was barely any leg room once you sat on the toilet, everyone quickly agreed with me. Some of these flaws are not obvious at first but once they become clear, they are instant dealbreakers. 

That being said, these construction and DIY mishaps are pretty impossible to miss. Keep scrolling below for the full list. When you're done, check out these tattoo artist stories.
