Sometimes, a designer's eccentric ideas turn into a total disaster. And no matter how many are spotted around the world, the stream of hilarious design fails seems endless. The Reddit community r/CrappyDesign gathers the very best—or worst—examples.







Can I catch a different flight, please?





No, this isn't a bloody crime scene—it's just a hallway in a children's hospital.



Author Martin Dorey once asked his publisher why his book, titled

No. More. Plastic.

, was wrapped in plastic.



A public restroom door.



Is it a little chilly in here?



An overly cheerful grandma: "We guarantee payment for your cremation."



Had to do a double take...



"Music brings people together."



A bike lane in Hungary.



Just looking at these stairs gives me anxiety.



This hotel wall was decorated specifically for children.



Wait, how did that snowflake happen?



A mouse cursor permanently embedded in a tile mosaic.



I wonder if the designer understands how mirrors work.



My pinky toes hurt just looking at this picture.



Halloween decorations in a nursing home.



A bottle of vinegar and a bottle of water—practically identical.



"My mother-in-law thought it would be great to capture this tender moment on a commemorative coin..."



"Make it look like she's in motion."



Don't be shy...



"Dammit, I pulled the fire alarm again."



This architectural marvel of a hotel bathroom door.



Whoever designed this library door had way too much trust in humanity.



"Enjoy the best of both worlds"... Thanks, but no thanks.



Artistic touches in a public restroom. And yes, this was the designer's intent, not messy visitors.



You shall not pass!



From behind, this doughnut mascot doesn't look very appetizing.



"Awesome! Now I can watch myself on the toilet from 500 different angles."



This completely pointless peephole.



Fun fact: this parking meter is solar-powered.
