I took this photo last month (with my camera phone) of the Positano Restaurant in Cardiff, It always makes me smile when I walk past it, so entered it into the smashing magazine sign competition, I did not win (was not expecting too with a snapshot) but made their Hotel, Restaurant and Diner Signs Part 2, but anyway… some great shots in their comp, better luck next time.
This gallery presents the collection of photos submitted for the World Of Signage Photo Contest by the readers of Smashing Magazine. We received over 2,500+ photos from our readers across the globe, and present a selection of the most interesting photos in the overview below.
The topic of this gallery is Hotel and Restaurant signs, i.e. signs that more often than not very clearly state what their businesses have to offer.
A beer friend of mine, Kim (the better looking one who runs beerlens.com) took a great shot of the Cheshire Cheese an iconic pub and sign (pah she got page one)
