Design in the Wild

We’re going to have to file this under “design don’ts” wandering the universe.

Disembodied dog head and paw…disturbing at first glance.

As you may have guessed, I had to cool my heels at the vet’s office while my dog was being tended to in another room. Spending time with this poster made me twitchy. If I’d had a marker, I would have outlined him and made a color burst around him—anything for dog body cohesion!

But his face really “pops”! Yeah…right off his body = not good. The black collar should help. Uh, not so much.

This poster would have benefited from a background color tint in 10% of just about any color. Or they could have used a different cutie pie dog whose fur was any other color than white.

The next time Clover goes to the vet, I’m taking a marker with me.
