Sign O' the Times

In a show that is distinguished by very good signage, Blue Circle's room is marked by what designer Gilbert Yeung proclaimed "the ugliest signs in the show." Yeung, an indefatigable self-promote, arrived at FSI, only to discover the show had provided no signs for the room. Yeung ran with the concept, deliberately lettering his own signs in a childish "Chinglish."

In past years Yeung has worn a large blue foam circle on his head and jammed monoblook power amplifiers into size 14 women's pumps. I actually bought a pair of those for my wife's office system, so which one of us is really playing the fool?
