After a discussion with a design professor where I work, we decided that a post-it should be designed that could be attached to property and people who violate basic design principles. A citation could be issued and a fine imposed. Here are a few to consider:
* shrubbery and trees planted with no thought for future growth (blue spruce against a house foundation??)
* bushes pruned in Disneyland shapes (keep it in the parks??)
* lapels of jackets where the stripes don't come together
* huge, out of proportion grills on the front of the new vehicles
* TVs placed in front of living room windows exposing a spagetti bowl of wires
* broken vinyl blinds ($11 at WalMart for new??)
* the Orem monstrosity designed for "city dwelling"
* Orem State Street
* home additions that match nothing on the existing structure
* exposed bra straps and boxers
* any tool, piece of equipment, or appliance that does not perform a function
* big box stores, big box anything
* schools that look like prisons
* second story doors to nothing (how many people must drop to their deaths??)
* huge efforts at JPU (just plain ugly??)
* bushes pruned in Disneyland shapes (keep it in the parks??)
* lapels of jackets where the stripes don't come together
* huge, out of proportion grills on the front of the new vehicles
* TVs placed in front of living room windows exposing a spagetti bowl of wires
* broken vinyl blinds ($11 at WalMart for new??)
* the Orem monstrosity designed for "city dwelling"
* Orem State Street
* home additions that match nothing on the existing structure
* exposed bra straps and boxers
* any tool, piece of equipment, or appliance that does not perform a function
* big box stores, big box anything
