# Unusable Everyday Item Photography These Shots Make Everyday Objects Useless by Changing Designs By Lacey-Jane Walsh | Published 2013-07-08 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/changing-the-designs References: [demilked](http://www.demilked.com/unusable-everyday-objects-giuseppe-colarusso/) & [giuseppecolarusso.it](http://www.giuseppecolarusso.it/) Imaginative artist Giuseppe Colarusso manipulates everyday objects in this series and renders them useless by changing the designs. These humorous photos are bound to make viewers chuckle. One of these shots shows a [cutlery set](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/evolving-spoon) where the handles have been replaced with rope. This would make eating a mission impossible kind of situation. Another shot shows viewers a sink missing a drain. These hilarious [manipulated photos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/light-into-darkness) make everyday items a lot more interesting. There's a really funny shot in this series that shows observers ping-pong paddles, with a pong ball sized hole in the middle. I find this shot to be particularly amusing. Giuseppe has done the impossible and turned boring everyday objects into hilarious works of art. These digital photos are definitely worth a look. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.8/10 - Popularity: 100% | Activity: 97% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/photography) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Useless Object Design:** Exploring unconventional designs for everyday objects that render them unusable, creating unique artistic expressions. - **Humorous Manipulated Photography:** Using digital manipulation techniques to transform everyday objects into humorous and entertaining works of art. - **Everyday Object Innovation:** Challenging the traditional functionality and design of everyday objects to create disruptive and thought-provoking concepts. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Photography:** Opportunities for artists and photographers to experiment with unconventional and humorous approaches to everyday object design. - **Graphic Design and Advertising:** Potential for incorporating humorous manipulation of everyday objects in graphic design and advertising campaigns to engage audiences. - **Product Design and Manufacturing:** Exploring innovative designs for everyday objects that challenge traditional functionality and user experience, opening up new market opportunities. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Kinetic Art Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-machine.md) - [Miniaturized Product Art Photographs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/small-muji.md) - [Imperfect Photography Celebrations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nonnas-cam.md) - [Artfully Functional Home Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ilan.md) - [Surrealist-Inspired Tea Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tea-for-two-collection.md) - [AI-Generated Retrofuturistic Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retrofuturistic-objects.md) - [Broken-Aesthetic Sculpture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brokenaesthetic-sculpture-collection.md) - [AI-Generated Real-World Transformations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-generated-world.md) - [Modern Design-Exploring Art Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pratone-chair.md)
