Um no. But Ikea seems to think so. They have switched to Verdana for store signs and their catolog. Disgusted with Ikea? Sign the petition.

Long, grueling project wrapped up, and was forwarded on to the global brand as “best practices.”  Feels rewarding. And  I love my job.

Oddly enough this reminds me of portfolio school. Adverting portfolio is all about generating lots of idea, and each idea is made into a marker comp on a shit of white paper. So needless to say every night in class we used tons of paper.  A girl in my class once divider her sheet into several different squares because she wanted to save trees and our teacher told her to “get used to killing a lot of trees in this profession.” It seemed a lot of us didn’t really think about it. But this paper doesn’t let you forget.
