Morphology

misproportioned = proportioned (transparent) = mis + proportion + ed

The productive prefix 'mis-' meaning 'wrongly' combines with 'proportioned' (past-participle/adjective) to yield 'incorrectly proportioned', a directly inferable meaning.

Etymology

Misproportioned is made of mis- meaning 'wrong' or 'not' and proportion meaning 'the size or parts that fit together', so it describes something whose parts are not the right size and look awkward.
