This is the Commissary at 1180 Amphibious Dr on Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story in Virginia Beach, VA.

 

Commissaries (on-base grocery stores) are ran by the Defense Commissary Agency (DECA) which is headquartered on Fort Lee, Virginia.

 

This particular Commissary has an older aesthetic and design package that I find to be gorgeous.

I love the detail on this illustration. Arm hair and everything!

An interesting attempt to convey the retro influences of Fossil with their interpretations, or sampling, one might say, from the past. I've always had mixed feelings about Fossil's choice of nostalgia as a branding strategy. Without question they caught the eye of designers early on as their work was showing up in all the annuals.

 

What it spawned was far too much half baked nostalgia influenced design by lesser practitioners who spent little time truly studying the styles from which they stole.
