About this listen
Exit signs slice through crowds while expensive logos vanish, and most people never question why.
We’re used to assuming attention follows investment, polish, or brand importance. In busy environments, that assumption quietly fails, leaving carefully designed logos ignored while blunt safety graphics dominate the visual field. This episode lives inside that overlooked mismatch, where what designers value and what the eye responds to drift apart without anyone noticing. It frames attention as something that behaves differently under pressure, exposing a gap between intention and perception that shows up everywhere once you’re aware of it.
After this, busy public spaces don’t feel quite as haphazard as they used to.
