Artist Warakami Vaporwave Gives Famous Brands an '80s Dystopian Twist

What happens when you mix iconic corporate logos, 1980s aesthetics, and a dystopian "1984" vibe? You get the visually striking art series "84" by Warakami Vaporwave. Known for their bold, neon-drenched designs, Warakami Vaporwave breathes new life into famous logos, giving them an eerie, retro-futuristic edge that feels like a glimpse into an alternate timeline. 

But it doesn't stop there—each logo is accompanied by chilling text that paints a picture of the dystopia we might be heading towards. HBO proudly advertises 1,942 new AI-generated episodes of your favorite show, while Burger King deducts "citizen points" for exceeding your daily calorie limit. From tech giants to fast-food staples, every logo combines the flashy optimism of the '80s with an unsettling look at a corporate-controlled future. Scroll through this thought-provoking collection and see the brands you know and love like you've never seen them before.
