Here'a an intercom system. So it's the front door first impression.
So what to do.....There's a camera for starters, so someone might be watching.
But what button to press. Maybe you get spotted on camera and get a welcoming voice over the intercom. But more realistically it's working out what button to press. You're naturally drawn to the biggest button, right above the speaker that also happens to have a green marker. But then there's some instruction, although quite low down...."Please press the red bell button". Well there's no bell button, but there is a button with a red circle on...is that the one they mean? Red is not the most positive and encouraging colour for these circumstances either, typically used for emergency buttons like fire alarms. The the red dot is probably the closest match to the instruction.... let's go for that.
In reality, the red sticker seems to have been added over the bell picture as with all the pressing the colour had warn away. But you're left with a test to enter.
What's extra curious about this is that it is the entrance to an organisation that provides arbitration services and hires out rather nice business meeting rooms. So as a hiring customer it's creating an impression already with a test/challenge/barrier, do they really understand my needs. And what about those arriving for arbitration, creating initial barriers or angst at the moment of arrival is probably not the best start to proceedings.
