Designers love bringing back styles from the past and giving their modern artwork a retro flavour. The 80s were all about bright fluoro colours, neon lights and scenes of electro futurism inspired by new computer technology. This post showcases 20 modern designs all based on the vibrant theme of artwork from the 1980s.

80’s style sure, but so much better when revisited by these amazing artists =D.

A proper blast from the past.
Amazing work – really captures the era!
Love the 80’s style of design its was as if they were not scared to use a vast array of colors in the work. These definitely capture the essence of the 80’s design work from the work I have seen from that era.
i have no words about this designs…all are beautiful……
Wow I read about it, but to be honest I never watched any picture of it, it was truly a serious event.
Loving the neon, I actually had socks in the 80’s that had the same colour palette as most of these graphics. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the nice collection Chris!
