I’ve always loved the Tiki Central logo — it perfectly captures that classic Polynesian Pop vibe while still feeling playful and modern.

Does anyone know much about its history?

Has the logo changed much over the years?

Who designed the original version?

Was it inspired by a specific mid-century artist or bar menu style?

There’s something about the bold lettering and island aesthetic that just screams vintage tiki culture. It feels like it could’ve been printed on a 1960s matchbook from a long-lost beach bar.

Curious what others think — do you prefer the current look, or was an older version better?

Would love to hear any background info or design insights. 🌴🍹
