non-uniform design
Etymology
'irregularly-designed' originates from the combination of 'irregularly' and 'designed', where 'irregularly' comes from 'irregular', meaning 'not regular', and 'designed' from 'design', meaning 'to plan or create'.
'irregularly' changed from the Latin word 'irregularis', and 'design' from the Latin word 'designare', eventually forming the modern English term 'irregularly-designed'.
Initially, 'irregularly' meant 'not following a regular pattern', and 'design' meant 'to mark out', evolving into the current meaning of 'designed in a non-uniform way'.
