Week 4 Inspirations Part 1

Hello again! On this lovely Thursday I have my weekly inspirations at the ready for you all to enjoy (hopefully). To start off week 4's inspirations, I wanted to share a few pictures I took while stopping in at Levin's Furniture store. I have to admit, I didn't think I'd end up finding some inspiration in there at first! Well, I guess it helps that I post them before going further!

Okay, so the first picture is of several photographs and a poster. It's not absolutely significant, but I really enjoyed how their height variables stayed equal, but their widths differed. The black borders really attracted my attention too, but I suppose it helps that the photos were awesome to boot. The second image is of a sign I saw hanging by a lot of chairs. It reads: "The perfect chair: What's your perfect chair?". I know the actual message is clunky and/or very repetitive, but I looked specifically at the execution of the styles. I like the hand rendered type on top, it was effective at catching people's attention, myself included. I also enjoyed the darker italic underscore, because after the attention is caught this phrase now resonates with potential buyers. That is pretty effective design, given its simplicity. And lastly, the bottom image is of a mural of sorts with nothing but a lot of type! It has names of tangent and familiar areas of the particular store, each with its own font and size. I really liked looking at this mural, and I actually had to wait to get a clear shot because of customers looking and crowding near it!
