Vaporwave is a retro-internet art style built on neon pink, cyan and purple, sunset gradients and a dreamy, slightly glitchy mood. It borrows from '80s and '90s computer graphics, mall culture and synth music. It suits digital artists, gamers and anyone who wants a room or feed that glows.

Yes. Swap neon for baby pink, lavender and aqua with a creamy pale yellow. It keeps the retro-digital mood but feels calmer.
