What advantages are there to these bizarre asymmetrical shapes?

They look rad, plus lift asymmetry could make the aircraft more agile in certain maneuvers

Could someone Please explain how asymmetrical wings are supposed to work? Shouldn't they make the thing impossible to steer?

As long as the lift and drag of both wings is equal it should work normally, even if it's quite unstable (but that can be corrected via fly by wire

Could non symmetrical shapes fly?

Yep, they've flown in real life, look at the Rutan Boomerang and the BV141

Hmm idk. the wings themselves are symmetrical.

Love these! The amount of unique forms here are ridiculously impressive. You've seen a future I wish I could!

Thanks a lot! Coming from you it means a lot I got their designs by drawing normal-looking aircraft and warping the drawings until I got something rad

I like it, especially the Phoenix, Falken ZOE and Zero Stroke.

Asymmetrical aircraft designs, in theory, could work. Although, these designs look radically asymmetrical... more radical than real-world asymmetrical planes.

No offense but they look kind of odd
