We can just picture the owners claiming that this isn’t a fault in the house; they totally designed it to emulate the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Their neighbors politely smile and nod, but deep down, everyone knows this was the product of a renovation disaster.
At least living in a leaning home would keep life interesting, right? And besides, when money is short, and the world recession is knocking on the door, let’s pretend we are in Pisa, and let’s pretend we don’t really need to trave as we have everything just outside our door.
Renovating on a Budget
Who says home renovations have to break the bank? A fancy new faucet might set you back a bit, but why waste your funds when a simple plastic drinking straw can do the job in style? The best thing about it is you can get a whole packet of faucets for less than a dollar. And, as each one wears out, you get to change up the color.
Kitchen renovations just don’t get any cooler than that. So, why waste your money on expensive faucets and them complain the entire month that you have no money left for takeaway? hence, no dishes to wash, hence, no need for a faucet?
Improvised Shower Head
While we’re on the topic of money-saving renovation improvements, here’s another creative homeowner who wasn’t going to be beaten by a busted showerhead. His immediate solution (and we can only hope this is just temporary) came in the form of duct tape, a soda can, and a whole lotta holes. You know what? This idea is so brilliant and seems to be working so well we’d almost back him keeping it as his permanent shower rig. Engineering level: boss.
We know this is more of a D.I.Y hack and less of a faulty design; however, we have a feeling that somebody out there is going to deliberately execute this as part of their new innovative design.
A most Important Message
This image is logic at its finest. “Gosh darn it, those neighbor dogs keep getting into our yard and pooping on the lawn. It has to be a problem with the gate. This sign should fix it... Closed and locked. Problem solved. Building the fence? Ah, I’ll worry about that another day.” Brilliant.
There is no way any dog, big or small, on the lead or of it, no one is getting through this one. This must have won the 2020 best innovative gadgets for a personal household award.
Stairs to Nowhere
Analyzing this photo and the staircase/ramp relationship is a wonderful exercise in making your brain hurt. Our best guess is that the initial plan was to allow the residents to enter the door using the staircase. However, in the middle of construction, they decided to slap a walkway over it (presumably), connecting it to another building on the opposite side. Whatever the cause, this pointless staircase makes you wonder how much you could trust the rest of the construction.
We assume this was a last-minute change of mind. Initially, the building was supposed to have a staircase however, something made them change their mind, and they built a bridge instead. Haven't they heard of cleaning up the mess after then?
