The font is fine, if a bit too common, but the blue color is really dull. Take note from New Haven's downtown wayfinding signage, which is a lot more colorful and festive.
ReplyDeleteAlso the arrow is too faint and small. It needs to be much bolder.
The 'Middletown' sign on top with the silhouette that is undefined makes me a bit anxious, since i could see it being unprofessional looking.
Really, for 20k, this was the best they could accomplish? Middletown should've pushed for more options. What about gateways to downtown? And landmark notations....lots of missing items here.
