made me smile, nice
i dont think this deserves to be posted on the main page... just a personal thought from a dentist who wants to draw a smile on his patients faces...

it ok. lets have some fun also on these pages.
and i think it is good branding also. i would defenitely prefer a dentist with a sense of humor..
Yes, I think you're right. It doesn't qualify as advertising.

hmm
but there is an agency name ?

Well, it's communication. It's self promotion for the dentist. But it's a thin line I guess.
hahaha
very cute.
it's POS material (not really ambient)... so that makes it an advertising piece to me...

This is not an original idea: it is a copied version of Richard Tipping's artwork "Sorry We're Open / Come In We're Closed" published in an open edition by Ubu Gallery, New York, in 2001. These have been available as double-sided large plastic signs internationally since that time, and more than 2000 have been sold. See for example: www.betterlivingthroughdesign.com/accessories/richard-tipping-signs.html
More of Tipping's artwork playing with signs is available through the store of the Museum of Modern Art, New York (search under Richard Tipping at www.momastore.org to see examples)
Its very cute.
