22 Designs That Are Out-Of-This-World Genius And At The Same Time Practical

Robert Whitman-Byrne


We all enjoy some clever wordplay or design. But occasionally, you stumble across something so clever that you find it hard to believe you didn't come up with it yourself or that it isn't more widely used.
Designers can create cool things out of nothing, and occasionally we simply can't stop admiring the outcome while reflecting on how cozy, brilliant, or just plain awesome it is. Examples of innovation that knows no bounds include a door that resembles a vending machine, an airport lounge with lots of outlets for our convenience, and a solar bench that transmits Wi-Fi.

Some out-of-this-world genius designs go completely against the grain of "design flops." For good reason, they make you go into full-on "I never thought I needed more of this in my life" mentality. Up until you saw a swing set made for both the parent and the child, you had never considered that a mother may feel the desire to enjoy herself on a swing.
It's amazing how good design can be found everywhere these days. It is practically present in everything around us. However, certain designs stand out for their level of originality and uniqueness.
Let's look at designs of geniuses outside the world and at the same time practical right now.
