“The resin letters "I love Melancholy" floats in the middle of the black wall. The other two walls are kept white and the florescent light is harsh on your eyes. It's so bright that once you step into the room, it turns out to be quite a trip. The black dimension is so calm and tightens up the glaring space. You can peek in from the half open door, place yourself in the middle of the room, or be up close to the clear coated lettering.

 

The simple font is somewhat adding to the warmth to this depressing word.”
