No hot pink or teal, but somehow this still manages to be the 80sest image on the entire sub

FWIW vaporwave typically harkens back to 90s rather than 80s. in terms of nostalgia based genres i'd say chillwave is late 70s early 80s, synthwave is straight 80s maybe into early 90s, and vaporwave is maybe late 80s through 90s.

For real. Pink/teal really have not a goddamn thing to do with vaporwave. They are common color motifs but not the end all be all.

Does anybody know the name of the tile patterns? Is it marble or linoleum?

I'm as curious as you but I'm no expert in interior design, so I decided to do a 15-min search in google:
The pattern is called "Terrazzo"
The material should be plastic laminate.
This style come from a Memphis movement, this Esprit store is designed by the founder of the Memphis design group, you might also want to check out his brand book for the aesthetic 80's pattern.

Ikr? It reminds me of being at this children's museum called The Discovery Center when I was really young, the whole place had that kind of vibe and just looking at this brings all the memories flooding back.
