Do not listen!!!
Outdoor directional type, let's talk about a fun topic. I am still downloading images until I get my usb cable if you haven't noticed. But back to this weeks thriller. Black and yellow are frequently used in outdoor signs or any sign really that needs to command attention. Due to the high contrast between the two colors it is hard not to pay attention. I chose this article of type because it commands attention, but not only is it directional type, it is the only directional type that I can honestly say noone ever listens to. Curoisity!!!

In the future, concentrate on finding examples of well-designed, less predictable solutions in type usage. This blog should be a venue for displaying examples of exceptional design that can generate intellegent discourse about creative and innovative type usage.
i agree that black and yellow are the quickest to grab your attention while you are driving, because honestly i always squint to read the green and white street signs. but i guess if those were black and yellow too my world would be all turned around.
