Noticings: Apparently the Apple store in Stanford mall is under renovations… so instead of shutting the whole thing down, they’ve got a couple of geniuses perched outside with carts, helping people with their laptop troubles. Wow.
Noticings: Gotta love those stickers. They are so cheeky.
Noticings: I like how this store pulled out all the candy that could be possibly related to halloween with nice little gift bags so customers can easily create halloween-themed candy bags. I know it’s not that special or unique, but there was something well done about it.
Noticing: I’m currently in Utah… It always amuses me to see little evidences of this state’s sensibilities, including this Cosmo in the check-outline at Whole Foods.
Noticing: A picturesque white fence, with a lovely pink rose, held together by a bungee cord…
Noticing: What I like about this is that instead of the obvious - “Sorry, we’re closed,” - the sign invites the customer back - “See you in the AM.” For some reason it just struck me as a good way to deal with the fact that a physical location has to be closed.
Noticing: A “closed sign” in Murphys, CA. This little closed sign caught my eye… Mainly, the fact that then entire thing is made out of paper and cardboard… Notice the edge of the sign, where the paper and cardboard don’t quite line up.
Noticing: So often when you go to restaurant and cafes and whatnot, you see people attaching reciepts to drinks and such through the condensation on the glass, or just yelling it out a la Starbucks, but I thought it was interesting that Red Mango in Palo Alto actually prints stickers. Just a small little thing, sorry for the crappy iPhone photo…
Noticing: a tree stump in the road in Bali.
