Stranger Things production designer Chris Trujillo shared insights into the creation of iconic sets for the series in an interview with Architectural Digest. He detailed the inspiration behind the 'epically gross' Pain Tree, a massive foam sculpture representing the Mind Flayer, and the WSQK radio station, influenced by an old radio station lookbook. Trujillo also touched upon the design of the Hawkins Lab hallways, highlighting the blend of organic and structural elements in bringing the show's world to life.
