WEEK 37 – Covington Kroger Closing, Set 1
I discussed a few descriptions back the construction of script décor, specifically as compared to millennium; but in this description I’d like to focus more on the actual look of the décor, and all the different elements that go into making it, well, what it is. As I told you earlier, the official name for the package is “Flagship Script,” meaning that this is one of the few examples of where our fan-originated name comes very close to the real thing! And it’s easy to see why that’s the case, too; obviously, the script font used for all the interior signage is a feature that stands out very prominently.
Besides that, you’ve got the columns, discussed previously, which are colored in white and adorned with red diamonds, and some additional stripes that complement the also-aforementioned border stripes that circle the rest of the walls in the store. Those stripes are colored in various shades of tan or beige, and taken altogether the entire color scheme – green for the signage and certain delineating lines, red for the diamonds and other small accents, and the various beiges/tans – definitely presents a very classy aesthetic. Throw in some wallpaper and woodgrain for texture (see the Kroger logo hanging in the corner in the distance), and voilà, you’ve got yourselves some script décor!
I’m curious to know – what’s your opinion on this package? For me, as I shared before on Discord, the best way I can describe it is that script décor is perfectly inoffensive. That is to say, it’s not my favorite, but it also has no bad qualities to it, nor does it feel overly dated. In fact, even though I associate it very much with the mid-2000s simply because I know it hails from that era, I think it feels more or less kinda timeless. The same certainly can’t be said for millennium! And yet, I’ve always liked millennium so much better; in fact, before just recently, when it became super endangered, I had never really sought out to photograph any script décor stores. It’s weird… I like it, but it’s definitely not one that I have much experience with or attachment to. I can see it and recognize it’s well done, but I don’t feel any excitement from it. Hence… perfectly inoffensive.
(Now granted, the rarer it’s become, the more I’ve grown to be excited about script. But you get my point – taken as a whole, it’s something I can appreciate, and even like, but it just doesn’t really do much for me, not like other décors anyway.)

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
