Aesthetic Apparatus Sorry, We're Lazy

For those of you living in Minneapolis and the tristate area, you might already be in the know. If you are NOT in the know, aka if you live on the internet, which I’m going to assume the rest of the world does, then you’d better get your eyes on this. Aesthetic Apparatus has here a 9 sign set (plus a few GIANT versions which are NAUGHT available to the public) of “Yes, We’re Sorry We’re” signs for your enjoyment and amusement. They are screenprinted in lovely black and blaze orange, and are sure to light the lol fire under anyone’s bottom.

Peek a take at the info, bro:

YES, WE’RE SORRY WE’RE
SERIES OF 9 SIGNS

What began as a never-produced poster idea has propagated itself into a series of 9 mock OPEN/CLOSED signs. Double-sided yet possibly commercially-useless, these signs will relay to passers-by and potential customers that you’re not really into categorizing your availability in such limited definitions like “open” or “closed.” Here’s a LARGER PREVIEW.

NOTE: These signs aren’t signed or numbered. But what do you want? They’re just signs!

8″ x 12″
2 color screen print (blaze orange / black) on double thick white stock

Check out shots below of graphic and real shots of the poster prints, including those found at our tours of the headquarter stations of Burlesque Design and Aesthetic Apparatus – as well as a dozen other print shops and coolguy cellars in the Twin Cities I’m sure.

JIGGY HUMAN DRUNK AESTHETIC APPARATUS

BEAT ALONE HIGH AESTHETIC APPARATUS

Plus, you’d be nice to note that these things are sill available for sale. Aesthetic Apparatus is apparently terrible at advertising their own wares or somesuch, because these signs are supremeatastic and I don’t know why everyone and their mother doesn’t own one.

This post is a part of the World Famous Design Junkies Aesthetic Apparatus collection. Seriously everything these dudes do is basically worth a peek. They know how to put things together real nice-like.

    @rezilla Is that you’re passive-aggressive way of saying I need to pay more? ‘Cuz I will. Name any price and I’ll pay it. DON’T CUT ME OFF!

    @bkogrady Maybe I should get the “Sorry We’re SORRY” to not offend you. Do not worry. You will not be cut off anytime soon.
