Looking for “love” in the big city? Look no further than the Crossroads of the World, as the Times Square Alliance unveils “LOVE in Times Square”, a public art project featuring 15 unique banner designs by 12 top graphic designers and illustrators. Each banner utilizes the word “LOVE” in a strikingly different typographic treatment, as each artist brings their personal interpretation to the word.

Reminds me of the 800+ plastic cows that where put up all across Zurich some years ago. What once was a fantastic idea has been repeated too often (benches and bears in Zurich, frogs in Lucerne) and lost much of it’s initial appeal.
