I guess when you get right down to it, the whole point of graphic design is to create something that is a) memorable and b) attention-grabbing.
And what could possibly be more memorable or attention grabbing than something that just straight up stops your brain because of how baffling it is?
With that in mind, as we scroll through these graphic design fails brought to us by Reddit, we have to ask: ARE they really fails? Or are the people behind these things secret geniuses?
We can’t know. There’s just no way to know.

What they were trying to do here truly isn’t difficult, and somehow they failed anyway.

If you’re gonna do some design, maybe have somebody proof it. It could save you a trip to a list like this.
