Essentially this is an argument by analogy. How about a scientific argument.

You created an analogy between those objects that are known to be designed and those objects that aren't known to be designed but are complex.
Your ideas rely on assumptions that have no real basis besides a statement of faith. It is a logical fallacy to claim that because some things that are complex are designed all complex things are designed. It is an empirical question that you have not provided empirical evidence for.
