How to Ruin a Great Design by Alice Rawsthorn
There are a lot of different types of bad designs. Bad designs can be the designs that do not show a clear message or are unnecessarily complicated. Then there are crimes against design or art, they deprive us of the joy of great design, by replacing it. For example, the sign that says “Diverted cyclists” it consist of two words, an arrow and a symbol of a cycle. They messed up this sign even though somebody else made this. They messed it up by making the “D” in Diverted much bigger than other letters, now this looks clumsy. Now this is a crime against design, which make people confuse when they look at the sign and it is hard to understand what the sign say. So In conclusion, to ruin a great design all you need to do is make it worse, add something that will look clumsy and that will be enough to confuse people.
