I guess it's safe to say no designer (or anyone else) wants to see their work shamed on the Internet. But to have it featured on the subreddit r/CrappyDesign you must've really done something wrong.
Maybe you created plant-dyed underwear that looks like it has just gone through a messy disaster. Or maybe you decided to use Comic Sans and useless quotation marks on actual police cars. Point is, if a picture of something you made ended up going viral in this online community, it wasn't by accident.
Continue scrolling and check out the times designers messed up so mad, it's like they don't even know how to use common sense! After you're done, fire up Bored Panda's earlier pieces on sub-par design here, here, and here. They're just as good. Err, I mean, bad. You get the idea.
