Mills Breast Cancer

I was at Carle for an appointment with the doctor when I studied the Mills Breast Cancer wall designs. The typography is to be expected (traditional, probably Times, serif, calming and trustworthy and all that), but what caught my eye was the use of materials. I like how the type is white on glass over wood. It's so elegant. Use of materials is kind of a second thought to most designers, but when materials are used in an unexpected way, it makes very expected designs to a new level.
