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.

I'm Obsessed!

I've been a fan of their tools from the beginning, but I've got to say the new Color Palette Pro is the best yet! As a web designer this is the first place I go to take my clients' inspiration and create a palette that's uniquely them, but also meets contrast guidelines. It's so much fun to use I could spend hours just creating amazing palettes. There's so much here, I could go on and on, do yourself a favor and grab this tool!
