Photographic Sequence: Warning Signs On Aircraft.


My sons love it here. They’re fascinated by big *stuff* – and big aircraft are proper stuff. While they’re noticing the big stuff, I notice something smaller.

I’ve always been drawn to typography. Relaying vital information through design choices is fascinating. The Exit Sign cannot be in Zapfino.

There’s something particularly ominous about these warning signs to me. This typography is life/death; these are potentially incredibly dangerous machines to work in and around. Every sign points to a tragedy waiting to happen. These signs matter most at the scariest time.
