purposely made it like a local TV ad from the 1980s, complete with bad acting, bad camera moves, and 4:3 aspect ratio,” said Curt Mueller, senior vice-president, creative director at 22Squared. On July 4, 1985, Scoops Ahoy, alongside the entire Starcourt Mall, was burned by a fire started by fireworks in the battle against the proxy body of an interdimensional entity. Steve and Robin were later hired to work at Family Video because they lost their jobs due to the mall burning down. Throughout the season, the ice cream shop was one of the main hangout spots. You’ll likely recall scenes with the very memorable Erica asking for more free samples.

One of the coolest things about the show is the iconic Stranger Things logo itself. The blood-red neon, stencil letters, and panned-out animation make it anything but forgettable. Did we miss any Stranger Things season 3 iconic logos in this roundup? Let us know on social @lookadesign!Now that you’ve seen a bunch of them, you may be able to point out some elements that make an iconic 80s logo. If you weren’t looking too closely, they were easy to miss. But since Looka is all about logos, it was the first thing that stood out! The Stranger Things logo and 80s theme A classic American brand, The Gap, made its way into this season’s long list of featured brands (cue the shopping montage). This logo has seen some major changes over the years, getting rid of its all-lowercase rounded typeface and tight kerning. You can’t help but love that retro logo feel, though. It was likely that Scoops Ahoy was highly regarded in Starcourt, as suggested by a Stranger Things 3 Starcourt Mall promo. [1] Stranger Things is a true ode to the 80s, and a celebration of the era’s pop culture — it’s totally tubular. This show is a perfect platform for advertisements, and it’s clear that many brands jumped on the bandwagon this season for a good reason.

Often referred to as a type of exercise made famous in the 80s, Jazzercise is a real-life dance company that’s still going strong with over 8,300 franchises worldwide. The 80s version of their logo holds a soft spot in the hearts of many with those cute stars and rainbow colors. Scrunchies, hair clips, and glitter, oh my! No mall is complete without a Claire’s — even today. The slightly elongated letters and loose kerning in this 80s logo have since been changed to a more bold and simple font — but really, the aura of the store has remained the same over time.But enough about the Stranger Things opening sequence! It’s time to take a look at what famous 80s logos made the cut in this season’s roundup (and where they appear). 1. Orange Julius

Everyone has good theories about why the Stranger Things account decided now was a good time to share a video of the destroyed Scoops Ahoy set from Season 3. However, I think the video is teasing the official announcement of a Scoops Ahoy line of ice cream products. This logo is so popular, there’s even a free Stranger Things logo maker you can use to create your very own logo in this style. I mean, User @ConnieR_B tweeted them asking: “Guys what does this MEAN?” and received an almost immediate response from the Stranger Things account saying, “it means something sweet is coming.” Ice cream is definitely sweet! My suspicion only grew after reading some of the other official replies, take this exchange for example: Having significant air time in season 3, Burger King came in strong and was a brand you couldn’t miss! This fast-food logo has had a few changes since the 80s, but the iconic colors and graphic sandwich effect have held steady. Speaking of Coca-Cola, the (old) New Coke made an appearance in many scenes of season 3. They’re now selling the limited-edition cans along with some 80s-themed merchandise.In the fourth season episode, "Dear Billy", Erica uses an old recycled Scoops Ahoy cup as a paint cup. Stranger Things: unfortunately those are not on the menu at the moment but how about some USS Butterscotch. Levi’s is another brand jumping on the show’s massive popularity, selling sweaters with “Stranger Things” plastered in Collegiate-style lettering, Camp NoWhere gear, and even the exact outfit that Eleven wore on the night of the epic Mind Flayer battle. A 15-second commercial was made to promote USS Butterscotch, a limited-time offer flavor being sold in Baskin-Robbins stores nationwide. The Baskin-Robbins R&D team took the flavor name from the show and created the flavor. Scoops Ahoy played such a massive role in the show, and for some, it was clear that this staple was a reference to Baskin Robbins.

Graphic design in the 80s featured pastel colors, animal print, tropicals, neon, pop art brights, and bold geometrics, making the style truly recognizable, even to the non-designer’s eye.

From the hairstyles and clothing to the music and movie references, Stranger Things is so clearly based in the 80s, and the fans are all about it.
