What contributes to a bad design?

Bad design is a result of not thinking adequately about end users’ needs . “Creativity” is over-rated. It often results in products which look “cool”, or fit into some trendy category, but don’t serve any other purpose.

What is bad design? The design that misleads the user just like smoke can mislead someone. It obscures the right direction as the smoke does. Whereas the good design is reflective just like a mirror, and it displays the clear truth as a mirror displays the real image of everything.

Bad graphic design comes in many forms, such as: An ugly color scheme . Too much clutter. Too many ads. Slow loading.
