Do you ever look at a building or a poster or a sign or anything really and think to yourself, “hmmm…that really looks like sh*t?”
You know you do! And I do it, too!
It’s kind of mind-blowing that people keep their jobs when they’re so bad at them, ya know?
So I’m here to say that you and I shouldn’t feel bad about thinking that way, because there is bad design all over the place and it’s actually kind of hard to avoid…
And here are some perfect examples of what I’m talking about…let’s take a look.

3. Seems like a great idea.
What could possibly go wrong?
