If you're a regular Bored Panda reader, you've probably seen one of our pieces on bad design. (If not, you can go through a crash course here, here, and here). It's actually one of our favorite topics.

But every once in a while we feel like we need to equalize the scales, and show some good creations too. Roughly half a year ago, we turned to the Instagram account 'Design Therapy' to do so. And it worked like a charm — the social media startup is an excellent source for exploring innovation.

So now, since they've kept active and shared plenty of awesome content, we decided to do an update.

Continue scrolling to check out cool cat towers, glass chairs, toy pianos, and many more visionary products. The future is now, folks, and it's up to us to reinvent it the way we like it.

    I like it! Creative ways to objectify men and the ideal male body, which is surprisingly delicious when warmed up.

    And then, when the lights turned off, the cleaning lady thought it was garbage and threw it away... and nobody could blame her

    this should be utilized in many more ways. I am visually impaired and more of these lights on stairs and handrails would help a LOT

    No it's not a good idear. There is in. This design is used in Osnabrück Germany and what you get is all the spiders webbing there cause flys are attracted by light

    Sorry I don't understand. I know flies are attracted to light but that would apply to most lights. Why would the spiders' webs be any worse with these lights?

    And the rest of it too- let's not overlook the flowing lines. A thing of beauty. Some Brutalist vibes too.

    As long as it doesn't attract spiders (who make webs often near those light places as insects are drawn there). So, yes for indoor spaces, no for garages or places with a high chance of spiders / less cleaning.

    I think they used this aesthetic in Star Trek as far back as the late 80s. Looks cool even now!

    This reminds me of something called a 'tulpenvaas', a Dutch vase for tulips. They were invented when tulips were very expensive. Because of the vases design you needed less tulips for a full looking bouquet.
