Overview

This is the only sign in the entire smoking series that communicates both permission and prohibition simultaneously — and does so with a spatial specificity that no other sign in this category can match. “SMOKING PERMITTED IN THIS LOCATION” and “PROHIBITED IN OTHER LOCATION” sit on the same panel, separated only by a size change in typography that naturally draws the eye to the permission statement first and the prohibition qualifier second. The result is a sign that functions as a complete spatial policy map in a single panel — you are here, smoking is allowed here, and it is not allowed anywhere else.

This dual-statement format addresses a communication gap that properties with a single designated smoking spot frequently encounter. A smoking-permitted sign at the designated location tells smokers they are in the right place, but it does nothing to discourage smoking elsewhere on the property. A no-smoking sign elsewhere tells people not to smoke there, but doesn’t tell them where they can go. This sign does both jobs simultaneously from a single mounting point — confirming the current location as the permitted zone while explicitly closing off the rest of the property in the same breath. For Los Angeles restaurants with a single outdoor smoking table, office buildings with one designated smoking corner, and hospitality properties with a single courtyard smoking area, this sign is the most spatially precise and policy-complete smoking designation available in the series.
