Adiós LA

When designer Jon Jackson accepted a job that would take him from Los Angeles to New York, he wanted to leave with a bang. And what bet­ter way to send a big mes­sage than via bill­board? So he designed and pro­duced a series of large scale, visual farewells the city he’s called home for years — a pretty amaz­ing idea, if you ask me. Check out Adiós LA to get a closer look at each of the five typo­graphic bill­board designs and learn more about the project.

    These are hilar­i­ous. Maybe he could do some wel­come to NY signs for him­self too.

    OMG, this might be my favorite self-directed design project of the year. He should take a sim­i­lar oppor­tu­nity to intro­duce [or wel­come] him­self to NYC.

    These are so hor­ri­ble. Insulting to LA, and ugly too.
