It seems that this law is a good idea executed with an unwarranted degree of severity. I've never in my life heard someone complain that shop signs are too big (it's the small ones that block the street that people hate). The advertising that should be banned is that which provides little value except to the advertisers, such as billboards.
- ufo 7y agoLimiting the shop signs was a good thing too. Those big boxy signs were very ugly. Not only did they block the buildinv facade but they wre built out of cheap materials that would fade with time. https://99percentinvisible.org/app/uploads/2016/04/signage-before-after.jpg https://99percentinvisible.org/app/uploads/2016/04/signage-b... Before the law, every shop needed their sign to be as big as possible to stand out in the mess. Now that all the signs are smaller it is not a probkem anymore.
