Not all the negative signage in White Oaks Mall was bad. This sign was perfectly fine.

A lot of the negative space signage I saw at White Oaks Mall in Springfield didn't look so good.

In the case of this sign, the LED lights didn't provide enough illumination to offset the brightness of the mall's well-lit environment. Also, the surface the sign was set against was reflective, which instead of providing a glow revealed each individual light.

If you look closely at the second picture, you'll notice some negative space signage of some colorful lines on the interior rocky wall of the salon.

I'll admit, this signage is not doing so well. In fact, it's dying a slow, ignoble death.
