It's so ominous, because of the date. "Welcome to the colors that will saturate the 1970s! AN ENTIRE DECADE OF THIS AWAITS YOU, MWAHAHAHA."

You conjoure up a truly frightening image!

ah, thus is my inexplicable fear and love of the 70s. As a 90s child I sometimes can't help but grow wistful of its absence on occasions. At those times I treat myself to a trip to my local casino to remind myself what sort of Technicolor hell I'm pining for

And there it is, the predominant color scheme of the 1970's!

While I'm not a huge fan of avocado green - growing up in a house with avocado green shag carpet, dark brown wood trim, and gold flecked mirrors on every wall pretty much put an end to that - I adore this ad for its simplicity. I want to save this and send it to my clients who have a nasty habit of overpacking their ads with information, to the point where it's a wall of text and totally ineffective. :) open space is good, people! GAHHH

I used to design signs. My all time favourite customer BS was I'M NOT PAYING YOU FOR WHITE SPACE!

Childhood flashbacks! I was truly traumatized by our avocado green stove and the harvest gold refrigerator, with coordinating counter tops, linoleum and wall paper.

*shudders* CAN'T UN-SEE!
