Street signs have been the same for so long that they've essentially become part of the scenery. It's only a matter of time though, until science makes life so different that street signs will have to change to keep up with the ever growing demand for up-to-date regulatory systems.
A Tumblr named 'Signs From The Near Future' has come up with some off-the-wall sign ideas, showing off what they believe to be things that will definitely change and need regulation. Signs like "No Synthetic Biology Allowed" or "Caution: Don't Enter Wearing Exoskeleton," may seem strange now but it may only be a matter of time before we need signs like this to maintain order in our everyday lives.
