A well-designed object should be aesthetically pleasing but also functional. However, now and then, we come across unusable everyday items that boast impractical shapes or unrealistic sizes. And even though we usually get annoyed or frustrated by these strange designs, we can, instead, choose to view them as precious belongings, as their eccentricity is guaranteed to encourage laughter and curiosity whenever we show them to our friends.
