This is from an art project in Vienna called Delete!, where they covered everything, which could be seen as ads in the Neubaugasse.

Signs in shopping areas should be limited to one sign as an identifier of the store. Logos should be allowed, but size should be limited--small and near the front door. No advertising of products, no window signs screaming "SALE!", etc. No fucking video signs, or animated signs of any type--no flashing lights, or physically animated signs.

We need signs to find the store, that's the purpose to which they should be limited.

    After going to Seoul for a week and coming back to Berlin, it felt like a breath of fresh air to be in the middle of the city. To be fair, Germany is not immune to ads and there are plenty in Berlin. But at the fucking very least nothing blasts music all day, no flashy strobing led signs en mass on each corner, door, shop or business all around the city.

    Loved Korea. Hated ads.

    Almost all of what is covered there are simply store names. There are many small stores in that street ... Oh, and the sign in the middle, which is covered, is merely spelling out the name of the street.
