Core 77’s Design Roast #31
The finest of industrial design
By Rain Noe From Core77
“Someone once rearranged these to spell out ‘OPEN PLAN SUCKS.’ We terminated them immediately.”
“My roommate has a permanent crick in his neck, so his books go in the middle.”
“The blueprints got crumpled coming off of the plotter. The contractor did the best he could.”
True story: This two-piece, high-end Squatty Potty alternative is designed to nest one inside the other to save space. It also gives you a fun activity to futz your way through right before you take a dump.
“Our research shows that most framers not only want the waffle head, but a slippery wooden handle and a nearly flat claw that’s unusable for de-nailing.”
“Limited Edish, yo.”
“Our design firm specializes in ergonomics.”

“The design brief was to make it difficult to select the knife that you want.”
“I wanted a front door that me and a flock of crows could all enter at the same time. It’s also great for letting moths in at night.”
