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.

In most cases grunge designs use subdued, dirty and dull colors. Brown, beige, grey and black are dominating colors. Vibrant shades of vivid colors are being replaced with more natural and subtle colors. The color palette below presents colors which are often used when it comes to grunge designs.

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.
