Walked into a building today. To my surprise, it had pull doors on the way in, and push doors on the way out. What kind of sadist does this? The life energy I've wasted on such inconsistencies could've powered a small Canadian town for a year. Every day we stray further from logic...

Architect here. Actually, this type of door design isn't without its merits. It may seem quirky but it combines a traditional 'pull' entrance with a 'push' exit for expedited egress during emergencies, such as fires. But yeah, for the uninitiated, it can be a bit of a brain bender.

As someone who's a bit of a door know-it-all, you gotta consider the usage flow, man. Push on the way out for fire safety - you gotta be able to get out quick. Pull on the way in? That’s just tradition. Still, it does mess with your head, huh?
