It is that time of the year, fourth quarter. The weather is changing, deadlines are shorter and everybody’s just a little bit more wound up than usual. Do not be discouraged friends, it is time to finish strong, crush our quotas and take a few days for ourselves. As we move forward into the new year, it is necessary to leave those processes which have weighed us down all year in the dust. Let us set our sights on the sweet horizons that we have laid out for ourselves.
New Year’s resolutions often consist of burning off those Holiday pounds, painting that room in your house or for us young romantics out there, finally telling the girl of your dreams you love her! The oh so popular line of “new year, new me” often discredits the good parts of us. We may want to change the negative but still keep the positive aspects of ourselves.

What’s one thing a barbershop, a laundromat, and an arcade all have in common? No, not quarters. They all have some sort of signage advertising their services. In fact, most businesses do.
Human beings have been communicating since the dawn of time, and our methods of communication have evolved dramatically over the centuries. From cave paintings to digital signage screens, we have come a long way in our ability to share information with others. Signs are especially vital when it concerns business or commercial services. In fact, signs are so important that over 76% of the respondents to a survey revealed that they’ve previously visited a store or business due to attractive signage.
In this article, we will take a journey through time and explore the evolution of public communication and signage, starting with the earliest forms of signage and moving on to the latest technologies.
