Simp...I favor the 'less is more' approach. Simple and refined with no tiring 'scream-at-you' signage. Harlem store owners have yet to catch on to that approach. <br /><br />Simple refined signage means means that your awning doesn't list every item you sell in the store in multiple colors and multiple fonts on it's awning. Too busy.<br /><br />Also, store owners need to realize that just because they receive a poster from the vendor of the products they sell doesn't mean they have to display it. Yet they do. And there they go cluttering up the window of what could have remained been a more inviting entrance.<br /><br />Harlem Meats on St. Nicholas & 124th is guilty of this. It's a new establishment with new clean modern decor features and a glass store front. Within a few months they started sticking posters and signs all over the glass and now you cannot even see in. It has become a cheaper looking and like many other establishments make you feel claustrophobic as you pass by. Also, there's a lot of stores that use the front window as a wall, so you are looking at a wall full of shelves and merchandise. Very closed and uninviting.zListernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2048034911181517049.post-31528823320223524632010-07-30T02:21:44.110-04:002010-07-30T02:21:44.110-04:00I like the new building much more than the Soviet ...I like the new building much more than the Soviet style bunker but still really hate it.
