New sign for Ham and Petersham Cricket Club


The club house for Ham and Petersham Cricket Club on Upper Ham Road is a modest building (bottom right) which now has a sign to announce its presence.

The light blue is quite a contrast to the jumble of greys and browns that surround it. (The less said about the orange and dark blue monstrosity on the bottom-left the better.)

 

Designing signs is always an emotive topic (there is a brilliant TED Talk on flag design which covers the main issues) and in my humble opinion it seems odd in a sign with only six complete words to repeat "cricket club". It is effectively two signs on one board when one sign would have done.
