20 of the most hilariously bad design fails not noticed until it was too late

How hard can it be? Designing something is easy, they thought. You just put it together and you’re done, right? These achingly bad design flaws show why you should always think before doing.

More people are getting creative than ever before. That’s great, except that most people massively underestimate the time, effort and skill that goes into making something that is both efficient and user friendly.

The 20 design fails below show why you should always spend more time thinking before launching into your next big project:
