This one's got folks all fired up - doesn't do owt for me - what do you think?

Wonder who paid for it?  ::)

I've seen a similiar thread elsewhere.

My honest opinion, absolute load of rubbish.  :o
Destination Chesterfield want their bumps feeling.
Somebody's laughing all the way to the bank.
Probably the designer.

I seriously can't for the life of me understand the logic behind it  :o

Apparently Look North (or Calendar) interviewed someone on the subject who they introduced as a Chesterfield Councillor. He wasn't.

Come on Andy, Chesterfield and Boza lads have a tradition going back many, many years for getting into a scrap...

TBH - I'm just winding him up :)

When Vicar Lane Shopping centre was designed one of the clear briefs (from Bill Flanagan) was that we didn't want an indoor concrete shopping centre because if you were in the middle of it you could have been anywhere, we wanted something where people would still be able to identify they were in Chesterfield.
Hence why you get the views ofthe Spire, the Market Hall and the hills.
This sign is exactly the opposite.
Take off the word Chesterfield, substitute any name you like (yes even Boza) and nobody would know any different. There's clearly nothing other than the word that identifies Chesterfield.

Exactly Jon. This design falls at the first fence - good design is about communication - and without the words it says nothing.
