We're all for interior design, but some of these things are beautiful… and impossible to keep clean . Cleaning is a never-ending chore. You'll always have to do dishes and laundry, and those floors won't mop themselves. In any house, there are bound to be a few hard-to-reach corners or crevices. When that's the case, people tend to just ignore it. Who cares if the top of a cabinet is dusty, or if that one crawlspace has built up some dirt? Well, it's a whole different story when it's a prominen…

Strike a pose

These car mods did not turn out as intended. Some people get a car and have big ideas in their head about it. So what if the car is 20 years old and barely starts? That's just the starting point, and with the right bells and whistles, soon it becomes a 20-year-old car that's also loud and flashy. Lots of car enthusiasts want their cars to be souped up, but they don't have the cash to spend thousands doing it. So some of these people take matters into their own hands. They decide to DIY a car re…

Thanks for the gold, kind stranger

Everyone makes a mistake now and again, but when designers do that, it's kind of a big deal. Their work lasts long after they've made their little typos, and suddenly a product is out in the world looking unfinished or weird . Below are 25 off-the-wall errors discovered this month, from unreadable clocks to signs that never should've been put up on the walls. We have quite a few stairwells that would send most of us flailing down a dozen steps. There are a few subtle fails in the mix too, like…

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…

Making a custom order can be the perfect gift, but only if the creator actually writes what you want! There are seemingly quite a few sellers out there who have taken some liberties with what they'll write on a shirt or a cake. Getting a custom birthday cake for someone is usually a sweet surprise. The birthday celebrator gets to have a professional-looking cake to take photos with and commemorate the occasion. But as you can see from the numerous examples below, sometimes a simple request for…

Measure once cut twice

If you think you're having a bad day, just wait until you see what these folks are going through. From tiny annoyances to giant messes, these people have been going through it. It's normal to have an “off” day or two. No one's life is perfect.

These people have a passion for graphic design, and they're ready to show it to the world. If you're an overthinker, you'll understand why some of these designs look so weird . The designer created a design, then thought, “That's too basic, I should tweak it a bit.” Then after the first revision, they thought, “Maybe I can add something else in.” And after many rounds of overthinking, they've produced something that looks cool to them, but is illegible to the average person. The point of most s…

A delightful dose of double-take
