The Carrollton Dunkin’ located at 1131 Bankhead Hwy has added a fresh pop of color and creativity to its space. The local franchisee teamed up with Red Ghost Co., an Atlanta-based artist duo made up of Alex Koenig and Meesh Medrano (aka Smeesh), to design and paint a modern mural that brings Dunkin’s fun, beverage-forward energy to life.
One of the franchise owners, Kyle Haynes, first discovered Red Ghost while the artists were painting a nearby mural and was immediately inspired to bring their bold, modern aesthetic to Dunkin’. The project began last month and was completed on Oct. 29.
“We love being part of the Carrollton community and wanted to celebrate that connection in a way that felt fresh and local,” said Chin Haynes, Dunkin’ franchisee. “When I saw Alex and Meesh’s work, I knew their style would perfectly capture Dunkin’s vibrant spirit. The result has exceeded all expectations, and we couldn’t be happier to share it with our guests.”
The mural showcases Dunkin’s iconic colors and joyful spirit, creating a welcoming and photo-worthy experience for guests. The franchisees envisioned something fun, beverage forward, bright, and unmistakably Dunkin – and Red Ghost delivered by blending community creativity with the brand’s signature energy.
“Working alongside Kyle and Chin on this mural was an absolute pleasure,” said Alex Keonig. “We set out to capture Dunkin’s upbeat personality through color and movement, creating something that feels both joyful and welcoming. It’s exciting to see how the finished piece brings that vision to life.”
Guests can see the new mural in person at 1131 Bankhead Hwy in Carrollton, and explore more of Red Ghost’s colorful, community-driven work on Instagram at @redghostco.
