Design

Designers are only human, and they can have a bad day or an unsuccessful experiment. Some of them are so eager to stand out of the pack that they create their "masterpieces" on purpose. Bright Side has made a selection of the most hilarious designer failures ever. And if you read to the end of the article, you’ll find proof that this doesn’t only apply to clothing.

Beautiful, stylish, and designer items are often really costly. And while some people spend a fortune on them, others just go to flea markets or thrift stores and find real treasures for mere pennies.

Everything around us is changing so fast that it’s hard to amaze us with anything anymore. But it’s still possible. Sometimes you just want something, like a kit for a lazy gardener or a cloud that predicts the weather.

A prom is an important event for every student. Whatever it was like, many people remember it for a lifetime. There’s music, dancing, solemn speeches, and luxurious outfits. Typically, girls put way more effort and time into preparing for their proms, and a beautiful evening gown remains one of the main attributes of the party.

With cozy vibes on the horizon, fashion is getting a fun update this fall and winter. Exciting new trends are making their way into the spotlight, and we’ve rounded up the best of them. Get ready to finish 2024 in style and step into 2025 with fresh, bold looks that’ll keep you on-trend all season.

How many times have you wished that an object had a feature that would make it easier to use, or that a place had a service that would get you out of trouble? Luckily for many, some creative people have come up with things that could save you from getting a headache every time you want to use an object.

Every day we come across things that someone once invented, from toilet paper to a huge airport. Behind it all are designers, architects and other creative minds trying to make the world more convenient. Sometimes their ideas are a little perplexing, but there are some works that make you want to stand up and applaud.

There is an inspirational quote that says, “Design is intelligence made visible.” And that is exactly the case with so many designs out there, whether they’re architectural or otherwise. And maybe people are so used to seeing bad designs that the moment they see something good and incredibly useful, they are in awe. This is why we decided to share 17 designs that will make you wish you had them.

We’ve grown so accustomed to the way everyday things function that we rarely stop to imagine how they could be improved. But sometimes, a small design tweak makes a big difference—like elevator buttons you can press with your foot, touch-free door handles in public restrooms, or a simple sticker that shows an avocado’s ripeness. These clever innovations may seem minor, but they can make life noticeably easier.

When designers are called upon to make a public space more comfortable, useful or rational — that is, when designers serve people — it can sometimes lead to fantastic results. We hope they’ll never run out of ideas, and will continue to make the world a more wonderful place in which to live.

The outfits of famous designers, as a rule, are shown on the runway by tall fashion models with a certain type of figure. So, when looking at fashion shows, we can’t quite imagine how this or that ensemble will look on someone with a different body type. Luckily, thanks to celebrities who wear branded clothing during various events, we have this opportunity.

Planning a wedding is all about making it personal, and some brides take that to the next level with stunning DIY wedding dresses. From intricate lace details to hand-sewn embellishments, these handcrafted gowns don’t just rival luxury brands, they outshine them in beauty, creativity, and sentimental value.

New gadgets, devices and design solutions are becoming increasingly embedded in our daily lives, capable of making life more comfortable wherever we are and whatever we’re doing — cooking in the kitchen, washing in the bathroom, even when driving a car.

One of the things that many women are most excited about after receiving the marriage proposal from the love of their life is the choice of the wedding dress. Many girls choose to rush to the stores to buy it according to their style and budget, but others prefer to make it themselves to give it a more personalized touch that fits completely to their tastes. Here is a selection of beautiful works made by different women for the big day.

Once, the Oscars adhered strictly to sartorial guidelines. Men donned classic black tuxedos, while women graced the event in elegant ball gowns. Yet, with the passing years, these regulations have relaxed significantly. Today, the red carpet welcomes celebrities adorned in T-shirts and even mismatched wardrobes, forsaking the need for meticulously coiffed hair.

It seems like in the 21st century everything has already been invented. But no, a remote with a headphone jack, a suitcase with built-in scales or a magnet bracelet to hold bolts during repair ... These designs will probably stay in your memory for quite a while.

Many of us don’t like to do our nails at home. It’s so much easier to pay a visit to a professional nail technician who will do the perfect manicure, and you won’t have to worry that the nail polish will chip off or that your nails will be filed incorrectly. Unfortunately, not all nail technicians are real professionals, and you can end up with results that will truly disappoint you.

No famous figure escapes the public eye. And this is especially true for royalty, who must reflect an impeccable image at any social event. In addition to following protocols and traditions, they also have some simple tricks that anyone can try, to look good at all times.

Salvador Dali used to say, “Have no fear of perfection — you’ll never reach it.” And while that may seem a bit pessimistic, in reality, it helps free you from the thought that you need to be perfect. Since there is no universal meaning of the word, “perfect,” you should just concentrate on putting your best self forward. That’s the only way you will create wonderful things that people will admire.

There are some people whose creativity urges them to find ways to improve things in everyday life. Things like chess for the blind and book benches are just some of the creations that make us really appreciate the quirky imaginations of great designers.

Some of the best designers combine creativity and practicality in their art that you can’t help but admire. Creations such as a swing for both parents and a toddler, a jump rope with a counter, or a dentist waiting room that looks like the inside of a mouth are all perfect examples of this. At Bright Side, we’ve put together some of the most innovative designs to share with you.

Whether you walk around the street or are house-hunting, questionable designs can be found everywhere. For example, imagine viewing houses and entering an apartment where the shower is located in the middle of the kitchen, or think about trying to open a door and not having a handle to grab onto. Or better yet, picture yourself sitting on a park bench and having the automatic watering system shower down on you.

A portable toilet that you can use on-the-go, a shower curtain with pockets to hold your devices so they don’t get wet, and a dress that you can color yourself with special markers — all these smart accessories bring ease to a woman’s world and make it more vibrant. Women are busy bees by nature, and they have to cope with plenty of tasks daily like taking care of family members and managing a wide range of domestic duties. This is why it’s so important for us to have tools handy that erase some daily stress and give us more freedom.

Spending time by the fire with friends in the evening, sunbathing in the day, cooking something delicious on the grill... A backyard isn’t a place to work, especially when the weather is nice.
