V&A (A for amazing?)

Today we went to the Victoria & Albert Museum and oh my god was it amazing. We were lucky enough to see the Alexander McQueen exhibit (shoutout to Lorraine) but the rest of the museum was just as amazing. The signage that they had was really cool too, it all kept with the theme of each exhibit. The 'everything belongs to you' was right in the lobby of the museum, which was awesome to see first thing you walked in because it made you realize that everything in the place is there for your benefit and enjoyment. The 'what is luxury?' was in an exhibit to the left. The entire thing was simple and clean with the rooms being kept mostly in black or white. It gave off an expensive, tasteful feel perfect for the exhibit. The shoe exhibit sign was my favorite. The neon was just so flashy and contrasting to most of the things around it so it really stood out and caught your eye. The contrasting typefaces in the neon sign were also a nice touch because usually neon signs are very simple but it made this one so much more interesting.
