In Sedona, Arizona a local law prohibits buildings from infringing on the natural beauty of the area. So their McDonald's features blue or turquoise arches. In Paris they has white arches, in Belgium it's a large red "M". There's even a yellow one at the Rocklin, California location. A golden yelliw one in Japan and India. There's a stylized "M" in Russia made up of two yellowish orange sticks(fries) and a red-orange circle(the pattie) against a dark green background. In Rome they have a mosaic titled "Enjoy the Classics" with toga clad figures eating burgers and fries. There is no McDonald's in Iceland.

I saw one in Madrid that looked like a tiny storefront, but didn’t notice if they had arches at all. I never knew about all the different ones.

That's interesting about all the different designs. I think we just have the regular 'golden arches'.
