Ultra-Minimalist Products That Are Almost Impossible to Use

Keeping things simple is great but there comes a point when it’s hard to figure out what a minimalist design is intended for…

Recycled Paper Side Table

Matt Gagnon’s recycled side table looks like a sculptural masterpiece, and people will be wowed by your new lamp stand. Gagnon must have been on crack when he decided the pricing – $2798! GTFO!

Fuksas Mocha Cups

These are designer coffee cups. Make sure to tell your less-knowledgeable friends before they ash in them.

Pano Logic Computer

The Pano device has no CPU, no memory, no operating system, no hard drive, and no drivers. Supposedly Pano delivers a complete Microsoft Windows experience through the use of magic server virtualization.
