#34: I’m Melting!
“Do-it-yourself” home renovations can be really fun or really awful. It’s usually a combination of both. Home renovations bring about a wild ride of emotions, from excitement to absolute despair. We can feel the exhaustion oozing from this light switch plate. The poor handyman who installed this didn’t realize it was the wrong size until it was too late.
Instead of going back to the drawing board, he simply powered through. Or he gave up, depending on how you look at the situation. He bent the plastic cover to his will and screwed it into the wall. Never mind that some tile was in the way along the bottom of the switch plate. This design choice is inspired by Salvador Dali’s paintings, not utter frustration and exhaustion over a failed home reno.
