I keep seeing people share this and talk about how things are so different than what it once was. How sad everything looks, no fun, no color, no imagination. We can of course talk about cost, it’s cheaper to do the bland look. However, these are chain restaurants, they’re not hurting for money. Here’s my take on it after I remembered the psychology/science behind colors/symbols proves they impact our mood …. so what if the lack of design also impacts our mood? To become more ‘dull’ and accept dullness as the new normal?
Subconscious programming. The puppet masters love when we don’t thrive, are uninspired, disconnected and confused. Strip away the uniqueness, replace fun with uniformity, and boom – you’ve got millions of people feeling a low-grade “blah” without knowing why.
What’s your take on how everything is beginning to look like the inside of a DMV waiting room? Mine in short is – to decrease the power of our brains/emotions and keep us low so ‘they’ can continue to thrive from the collectives misery.

color is in our phone now with hues in the spectrums. why do we need it in real anymore lmao digital world for our digital selves i guess. the book dopamine nation seems lost at this point lol
In this exact case. I very much doubt there is anything beyond “They’ll come to our chain even if we save money on decoration” if anything is out to warp our brain, I don’t think social media needs any help from a dull looking fast food joint. Just see all the different trends on the conspiracy subs, you don’t need much hindsight to see how much unimaginative noise there is on around here.
I definitely think it’s on purpose. Same with cars
So the whole minimalist movement didn’t happen before or something is what you’re saying? Life tends to repeat in cycles…this is just another expression of that
It’s just makes me not want to eat there and it works. I haven’t eaten out or had fast food in a couple years since this has started. Plus the prices aren’t helping.
eating fast food also changes your brain chemistry.
Minus the playground I think most have the same amount of colors used just a more subdued and minimalist design
Coincidentally, all establishments I no longer choose to do business with.
