Color Palette: Vaporwave

Color Palette: Vaporwave

Samantha Remboldt

Retro-futuristic, dreamy, and dripping in nostalgia, the Vaporwave color palette is a nod to the aesthetic of early internet visuals, 80s synthwave, and glitchy neon-lit cityscapes. With soft pastels, electric hues, and a warm digital glow, this palette is perfect for brands looking to channel a nostalgic yet futuristic aesthetic. Whether you're designing for digital art, tech branding, or social media content, these colors bring a bold yet dreamy vibe to your visuals.

Cybermist and Dreampink create a soft, atmospheric foundation, evoking the glow of a CRT screen, while NeonAqua and PeachGlitch add a playful contrast. VirtualRose and CyberPlum round out the palette with intense, futuristic saturation, making them ideal for statement elements and branding accents. If you’re creating a design that embraces cyber nostalgia, digital surrealism, or futuristic aesthetics, Vaporwave is the ultimate color scheme.
