two. mind the media!



More pictures from the trip to the Museum of London and Imperial War Museum! On the left is the design on the wall that was imprinted in gold in order to show the way to the "Victorian Walk" area of the museum, which had a bunch of cute shops that were done in a way to resemble life in Victorian England. It was really cute and I love the way that this sign was done! In general, I think that there's something really classy about pairing black and yellow together but even the lighting to illuminate it manages to pull it all together nicely. The font chosen is very delicate and refined as well, which definitely resembles Victorian England. It was really fitting!


Next up is the bunch of signs that were used in World War I to act as guides for those who were embroiled in trench warfare. Some of the familiar names "Eton Lane" and "Piccadilly Circus" were put up by soldiers who would miss their home. It's just very real, especially as the other names are brought up like Hellfire Corner and Death Valley. It's really sobering to just see it all laid out like that.
