Tokyo Signs Two
Some more wonderfully designed signage from Tokyo. Most of these were taken in the Harojuku area, a few are from Shibuya. The type and design of the subway system is incredible, so well thought out. More to come….

Hi!
I just discovered your blog through http://ilovet...pography.com, and I’ll definitely be adding you to my RSS reader!
Thanks for posting these signs. They certainly are an inspiration to visit Tokyo! The last sign posted is absolutely amazing as an example of simple beauty.
Also, your music is really great. I’m listening to the streaming versions of the tracks on http://tychomusic.com right now.

Scott, I know you get a lot of comments to read, but I just wanted to say THANK YOU for sharing these shots – I’m very very inspired by the minimal design and colors in this airport. If you find more design like this in Japan, please share it!
Thanks,

Nice. Can I ask what camera you used? The colors look like it came from a Lomo but I’m not really a photographer.

Scott,
Have you seen this article about a guy in the Tokyo subway that creates beautiful typography with colored sticky tape?
