Mallwave Card Frames

Mallwave Card Frames is a set of 11 card, currency and notification components drawn in the vaporwave style, where rounded and folded corners carry pink-and-teal slabs over a deep indigo ground. It contains four rarity card frames, three currency counters, a notification badge and three toast banners.

Rarity is almost always encoded as a border colour, which fails twice: it disappears in greyscale, and it competes with the item art, which is itself coloured. This set encodes rarity as structure instead.

This is the one frame style that allows a curve; every other one in the catalogue is strictly angular. The gradients run across the long axis in two saturated stops rather than fading to a neutral, because a washed-out vaporwave gradient reads as a mistake rather than as a mood.

Inside that style this is the Mallwave reading of it: a dark interface on a plum haze palette with sunbleached gold accents, built around a single bordered frame, chamfered buttons at 132x40, hollow-cored bars divided into 16 segments, and two-tone icons on a 16px grid. Those measurements are why two families can share an art style without being interchangeable: the style decides how an edge is drawn, the numbers decide what the interface is for.

Each tier adds a countable feature — common has none, rare adds two corner brackets, epic adds an inner rule and four brackets, legendary adds a crown band. You can tell them apart at thumbnail size, in a screenshot, and with the colour removed. The toast banners keep colour to a 6px edge stripe so the message text sits at the same contrast in all three tones.

Every sprite ships as an editable SVG and as transparent PNG at 1x, 2x and 4x, so you can drop the PNGs straight into an engine or open the vector and change a colour. Built to the same measurements as the rest of the Mallwave family, which means this kit and the Mallwave panel kit line up without either being resized. A good fit for synthwave, dusk-set and retro-romantic interfaces.
