There are plenty of examples of bad design out there, but we can find some excellent designs here and there. And good design involves uniting the concept you have with the physical end-result of the product.

For instance, Ikea talks about how its design is “democratic” in that the company believes “good home furnishing is for everyone.”

You’ve heard that “function over form” is an important aspect of design, but have you ever considered that they can be (and should) united into one seamless whole?

Postmodernist Frank Lloyd Wright, who dedicated his life to crafting organic designs, coined the phrase “form and function are one.” According to him, form and function ought to be in “a spiritual union” instead of vying for dominance over one another.

In a previous interview with Bored Panda, the moderators of the ‘Crappy Design’ subreddit said that the community changed over the years.

“The original motivation for the subreddit was to point out crappy designs. Nowadays, most subscribers probably come here for entertainment. However, it is common to have meaningful discussion here on why or why not something is crappy design,” they said.

A long time ago there was a tax for Windows, so if you couldn't afford them all, you bricked them up. It looks like this building was converted into apartments or something after that, by which time the floor levels wouldn't have matched up with the original windows so new ones would have had to be put in at different heights. It's a shame they couldn't include the original spaces and shapes somehow though, it does look a mess.

I'm using silicone muffin trays to make ice cubes. BUT put the tray on a bread board / cooling rack etc to take it to the freezer so you don't lose all the water. * the large size. * Australian here it is getting to 40c. Need big ice cubes.
