SET 1 – Walmart, Morrilton, AR
Walmart's interior décor packages have a long history of evolving into different (and often cheaper...) versions of themselves over time. I've already discussed this phenomenon as it relates to Project Impact back at this description, and over the course of the past 5-7 years or so we also saw that develop in relation to what we've taken to calling Black Décor 2.0: first, you had the original implementation, as we saw in Hernando... then came BD2.1, with only minor changes, as we saw in Oxford... next, a major font change was brought along with BD2.2, as we saw in Olive Branch... finally (and most recently), an even more drastically different version emerged, which also took the cheapness factor to a mind-bogglingly insane level. One could argue that that package is different enough to where it's not *quite* an evolution of the BD2.0 family, but personally it has enough similarities to BD2.2 for me to consider it effectively BD2.3, even though you're more apt to see other names for it instead, like "cyanominimalist" or my personal favorite, "the blue nightmare" :P Anyway, my most notable reason for considering that package (which I've yet to upload my own photos of, but which you can see in albums from l_dawg2000 and kbable272 here and here, respectively) the last version of the BD2.0 family, though, is because I view this new Airport décor package as a clean slate, a fresh beginning -- the décor cycle once again starting over anew. It will be interesting to see over the next several years where this latest family of décor packages takes us!

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 :)
