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.

If you allow designers to call the tune, they’ll end up creating lots of fascinating stuff out of ordinary things. Not that we mind: doesn’t it feel good having something that is both useful and aesthetically pleasing? Bright Side has gleaned 25 examples of everyday objects that look remarkably original while remaining practical.

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.

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 encounter things that were once invented — from simple toilet paper to massive airports. Behind them are designers, architects, and other creative minds working to make life more comfortable. Sometimes their creations leave us scratching our heads, but other times they truly deserve a round of applause.

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.

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.

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.

Everyday essentials might seem perfectly designed, but there’s always room for a little extra genius. From belt bags with hidden perks to sweaters that surprise, even the most familiar things can pack a 'wow' factor.

Innovation and design are two concepts that can’t live without each other. Designers around the globe put their brains to work to create something that has never been done before or that is rarely seen. Let’s check 18 unique creations that not many of us will have the luck of experiencing face-to-face.

Throughout history, countless architectural marvels have stood as symbols of human ingenuity, culture, and progress. Yet, some of these remarkable structures have been lost forever, leaving behind only photographs, sketches, and stories of their grandeur. From iconic landmarks destroyed by natural disasters to buildings erased by people, these eight structures serve as poignant reminders of the impermanence of even the most impressive creations.

Today, we hear about new inventions constantly. But before, we only dreamed about these futuristic creations after reading sci-fi books. You’ve probably thought about how cool it would be to have pockets in your evening dress or how awesome being able to keep your drink cold for extended periods of time would be. Or maybe you’ve always wanted to have a portable garage? Well, we’ve got some great news for you: these dreams have come true!

There are designs that make us want to jump up and down with joy. But sometimes designs are so crazy that we don’t even know what to do about them. Banana cars, sneakers on hills, and other insane things are perfect illustrations of such situations. But even though they look ridiculous, they make us laugh.

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.

Some designers have such a good imagination that they turn even the most ordinary things into masterpieces. Have you ever seen a book that turns into a lamp when you open it or a lamp that blooms like a bunch of flowers? Thanks to these and many other items, our world is way more interesting.

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.

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.

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.

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.

It will come as a surprise to many, but scientists say that most inventions happen by accident when no one expects them. For example, someone can drop something on the floor, break it, then think of a revolutionary method to prevent these types of accidents. This means that any one of us can invent something new if we keep our minds engaged.
