Or has the language of dots next to something taken on a meaning that perhaps it didn’t have before…
When I spotted this in the window of a hotel I thought to myself: “How odd that they’re promoting the fact that their facilities are only 1/3 as good as they should be”. In my head when I see coloured-in blobs next to words I assume that they’re some kind of rating.
Damn you internet, damn you! You’ve made meaningless graphical circle-noodling into something more.
I know what you mean, I generally look at those as colour coding and tend to associate text and visual elements at first glance and then would be drawn to the same conclusion as you with their ‘rating system’. The copy isn’t exactly great either.
Na, it’s just shit lazy graphic design.
Yea it’s just you, you think too much.
