This weekend I went to Camden Town in London. The streets reminded me much like Venice board walk. There was bargaining and fast selling of souvenirs and cheap merchandise. What I loved most about Camden was the food stands next to the little river.
While waiting in line to purchase a fresh squeezed lemonade drink and I noticed the interesting sign the stand had. I like how the O and D do not connect and how "LEMONADE" pops out the most. The contrast on the sign is terrific. Everything is well organized and the alignment is easy to read. One thing I would do differently about this sign is change the size of "ice cold". I did not really notice it until I analyzed this picture afterwards. But overall, the design on this stand was better then the other competitor food stands.

Yesterday, I went to the famous Harrods mall. Inside was absolutely beautiful! Harrods is 6 stories high and has a basement level as well. I can safely say, I got lost a few times inside the mall. My favorite part of Harrods was the wine cellar in the basement floor. Being a wine and viticulture student, I was astonished on all of the wine Harrods has to offer. I saw a French wine bottle worth 12,000 Pounds!
In the entrance one of the security guards gave me this map store guide for Harrods. Honestly, I do like it all. I think it is quite confusing. "Harrods" is in the bottom right barely noticeable. At a first glance, I could not tell if this is a store guide for Harrods. Horrible placement with bad alignment and contrast. I personally am not a fan of the Harrods in cursive. Overall, not impressed by the typography and design of this store guide for Harrods.
