Design Criticism: Pentagram's Modular, Physical Signage System for the National Library of Luxembourg
Funny they created the large ones to be reconfigured; most of those never change unless the building is remodeled. Not like the W.C. or elevator are going to be in a different spot every month. Or how often does a library rearrange its collection that it would require them to climb a ladder and change a sign? So while I don't think these will be changed very often at all, I don't see the need to create a reconfigurable cube system for it. Just make a new sign if this happens. It's a bit too clever for the sake of being clever.
