What is Graffiti Design?

Graffiti Design incorporates street art aesthetics—spray paint effects, bold tags, urban textures, vibrant colors, and counter-culture attitude. Brings outdoor urban art into digital interfaces with rebellious, expressive energy.

When Should You Use This?

Use graffiti for streetwear brands, hip-hop/urban music, youth brands, art platforms, or products targeting street culture audiences. Works when authenticity and urban credibility are important.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• •Generic tagging—graffiti has distinct styles; generic "street" fonts look fake
• •Too clean—graffiti should have organic imperfection; perfect digital execution misses authenticity
• •Cultural appropriation—ensure genuine connection to street culture; avoid exploitation
• •Poor legibility—graffiti style can be hard to read; balance style with function
• •Wrong context—graffiti doesn't work for corporate/professional contexts
