Eveything has a label

This blog is about signs, symbols and typography in their natural habitat

Signs define our built environment more than architecture. This may be news to architects, but it shouldn't be. In the same way that dirty clothes, yesterday's newspaper and and dusty brick-a-brack clutter up those unlived-in rooms from Better Homes and Gardens once the cameras are gone, signage clutters up the streetscape. Open your eyes. What do you see? Signs. You see signs.
