Spotting an interesting number 7 in Aarhus turned out to be more challenging than I expected. It took me several attempts to find the one I like.

Interestingly, 3 seems to be a rather popular number here in Aarhus. So I had no problem finding several possible candidates for the week 3 entry.

Android Snap of the Day: Font Bonanza

leave a comment »

Despite the fact that I’ve been living in Aarhus for almost 18 years, I often get lost in my own city. Last time that happened, I discovered this vintage door sign. According to the missus, the sign dates back to the 30′s. What makes it particularly interesting is that a different font is used for each line (except the first two words). In case you wonder what the sign says, here is the translation: Dealing, begging, carrying goods up the main stairs, and parking bikes and prams is prohibited
