This is great design, the deliberately ambiguous text placement catches the eye of designers, who it's clearly targeting, and it's still plenty legible.
Is this the IRL version of "The easiest route to an answer to a question, is just to state something online"?
Risky. I didn't look at this and became compelled to go in person to correct them. Something unique about the online world that invites responses and correction.
I think the message (it's too explicit to call it an implication) is that the customers are designers, they know design better than the advertiser here, who is likely selling some sort of management class.
For whatever reason my brain ignored a bunch of words and immediately read it as “we’ll show you how to design lead” (with “lead” being read as the metal). I was extremely confused, but less confused than when I realized how it was supposed to be read.
If the "how to"s were swapped it'd still be pretty "don't dead", but at least vaguely sensible. No idea what the fuck they were going for with that swap
I got near the bottom of this reading left to right before thinking about what it was saying cause the whole I couldn't even figure out what the fuck was going on
