There’s a beautiful sculpture in Glendale CA, not far from Hunt Design. The simple structure is a 24-foot tall, stacked address number, in Helvetica Bold, and painted lime green. There are many address numbers that blur the line between signage and sculpture, but this one stands out because of its boldness and simplicity. Designers often look for inspiration in the world around them. It is often the simplest of things that can provide needed inspiration during the design process. And for those practical people who may point out that the numbers aren’t legible from the backside, this inspirational address is on a one-way street.
