It’s nice to have drawers for storing items like dishes and silverware. It’s also super nice if you can actually open said drawers. It’s pretty clear that the contractor did not get the exact measurements for this kitchen cabinet installment. Either that or this is the worst attempt at child-proofing ever!
Sure, the kids can’t get into the knives and scissors… but neither can anyone else! This could have been easily turned into a narrow wine draw, a sliding rack for spices and other bottles, but no. the constructor preferred taking a short way. Jut leaving it as it is.
Room With a… View?
Windows: they’re pretty pointless if you can’t see out of them. Try telling that to the owners of this house, who figured building a window behind the chimney flue wasn’t at all counter-intuitive. We suppose the dream of an attic with a picturesque view got put on the back burner as the chimney was prioritized. Sigh.
What we’re wondering now is, how many other renovation disasters are lurking, in the depths of the house, behind this view-less window? The only other explanation we have is that the room was renovated at a later stage; however, that still brings us to ask - why wasn't the window blocked off?
Stairs, Please
Okay, so there is nothing wrong with installing a door several feet above the ground. People do it all the time. They just usually remember to include a staircase, you know, so you can actually use the door. Is this an epic prank pulled on the unsuspecting tenants of room 70?
If so, we hope they were out when the prank was enacted because if they’re inside and decide to head out before having their first cup of coffee for the day, they might not notice the missing staircase in time!
The Contortionist’s Toilet
Here’s another home renovation for you: no matter how elegant your bathroom design is — if you can’t actually sit on the toilet, the aesthetic is going to rapidly wear thin. Marble counters are all well and good, but you kinda need to be able to actually use the bathroom.
This is one home renovation fail we really can’t see any way of fixing without pulling everything out and starting over. It's either that or it's time to take yoga or pilates lessons to make sure you are flexible enough to somehow get yourself around this.
Trapped
Don’t you just hate it when you’re super hungry but can’t open the fridge because the oven’s blocking it? Or has that never happened to you? This is yet another problem that could’ve been solved by simply measuring first and installing second. Tip: bigger isn’t always better. Oh yes, and sense is not always as common as you may think it is.
This has got to be a house someone is renting out, and that someone obviously doesn't care if his tenants are able to make use of the kitchen or not. As long as he advertised a "fully fitted kitchen and well designed."
