What is Miami Vice Design?

Miami Vice Design captures 80s Florida coastal aesthetics—hot pink and turquoise color combinations, palm trees, sunset gradients, art deco influence, and sun-soaked neon vibes. Named after the iconic TV show, embodies tropical 80s excess.

When Should You Use This?

Use Miami Vice for tropical brands, summer campaigns, music (especially electronic/tropical house), fashion, or products targeting upbeat, party-oriented audiences. Works well for limited-time campaigns and seasonal promotions.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• •Wrong colors—Miami Vice is specifically hot pink + turquoise; other combinations miss the aesthetic
• •Too literal—don't need palm trees everywhere; color palette evokes the vibe
• •Missing 80s context—Miami Vice is 80s-specific; mixing with other eras dilutes it
• •Overuse—intense color combination is exhausting; use for accents and campaigns
• •Wrong season—Miami Vice works for summer; feels out of place in winter
