generally, I'm a big fan of architects. i like design and buildings and all that. but there's something they do (or designers or someone) which drives me mad. this lloyd's shop is a good example. but you see it on 'prestige buildings' all the time. they design a gorgeous, thought-through door / entrance / portal / reception area. and make no provision for the inevitable stuff that people are going to want to stick on the door. so you see a fantastically glamorous building with a badly printed bit of paper saying 'deliveries round the back' or 'please use other door' or whatever. they just don't think about the real usage of the things.
not only that but the sign says 'Christmas Eve' then 24/12/03 in case someone reading it isn't sure when christmas eve is!
