We come across so many human-made things in our day to day experience that we hardly notice how they’re designed or how they’re functioning.

The only time they really catch our attention is when they’re totally and obviously broken. But then there are the more subtle moments when we stop and say to ourselves, “Hold on. This is wrong. This is MADE wrong. Why would any human person make something so wrong in this way?” Then we just stare at it and contemplate until we achieve enlightenment.

Find your confused zen with these ten brilliant examples of design done very, very wrong.
