Vapor dotted map and 3D globe look

Vapor

Synthwave horizon, pastel split

Vapor takes the chromatic-aberration RGB split that defines 2020s vaporwave / synthwave design and lays it across the dot field. Pastel pink dots on a deep midnight-purple ground, separated by a few pixels into red and blue channels. The result reads as a still frame from a Miami Vice title card or a 1985 album cover that's been left out in the sun. Use Vapor for projects that want to lean fully into the retrowave aesthetic: synthwave EP covers, late-night brand systems, gaming-adjacent product launches, anything that asks for a neon-on-night-sky mood. Tune split for how aggressive the chromatic separation is; intensity controls how much of the original dot color comes through underneath.

When to use this

  • Synthwave / vaporwave EP and album art
  • Late-night SaaS or gaming product launches
  • Cyberpunk-adjacent editorial spreads and zines
