Grunge art is a style of visual art characterized by a raw, gritty, and dirty aesthetic. It is often associated with the grunge music scene of the 1990s and is influenced by punk rock and underground comics.

Grunge design was characterized by its gritty, weathered, and distressed look, mimicking the worn-out appearance of band posters and album covers. These designs rejected the clean, polished look of previous design eras, embracing imperfections and unpredictability.

Relishing in dirty backgrounds, layered textures, torn edges, hand drawn doodles, distressed fonts, real life imagery and cut outs, grunge design pretty much breaks every rule of 'good web design'. Forget white space and pixel perfect elements. Ripped edges, uneven lines and crooked elements are much cooler.
