Everybody loves a beautiful wallpaper to freshen up their desktops and home screens, right? To cater for **new and unique designs** on a regular basis, we started our [monthly wallpapers series](https://www.smashingmagazine.com/category/wallpapers) more than 14 years ago, and from the very beginning to today, artists and designers from across the globe have accepted the challenge and submitted their artworks. This month is no exception, of course.

In this post, you’ll find desktop wallpapers for **August 2025**, along with a selection of timeless designs from our archives that are bound to make your August extra colorful. A big thank you to everyone who tickled their creativity and shared their wallpapers with us this month — this post wouldn’t exist without your kind support!

Now, if you’re feeling inspired after browsing this collection, why not [submit a wallpaper](https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2015/12/desktop-wallpaper-calendars-join-in/) to get featured in one of our upcoming posts? Fire up your favorite design tool, grab your camera or pen and paper, and **tell the story _you_ want to tell**. We can’t wait to see what you’ll come up with! Happy August!

* You can **click on every image to see a larger preview**.
* We respect and carefully consider the ideas and motivation behind each and every artist’s work. This is why we give all artists the **full freedom to explore their creativity** and express emotions and experience through their works. This is also why the themes of the wallpapers weren’t anyhow influenced by us but rather designed from scratch by the artists themselves.
August Afloat

“Set sail into a serene summer moment with this bright and breezy wallpaper. A wooden boat drifts gently across wavy blue waters dotted with lily pads, capturing the stillness and simplicity of late August days.” — Designed by [Libra Fire](https://www.librafire.com/) from Serbia.

Dive Into Summer Mode

“When your phone becomes a pool and your pup’s living the dream — it’s a playful reminder that sometimes the best escapes are simple: unplug, slow down, soak in the sunshine, and let your imagination do the swimming.” — Designed by [PopArt Studio](https://www.popwebdesign.net/) from Serbia.

Sea Shanties And Ears In The Wind

“August is like a boat cruise swaying with the rhythm of sea shanties. Our mascot really likes to have its muzzle caressed by the salty sea wind and getting its ears warmed by the summer sun.” — Designed by [Caroline Boire](https://gaae.design/) from France.

Subtle August Chamomiles

“Our designers wanted to create something summery, but not very colorful, something more subtle. The first thing that came to mind was chamomile because there are a lot of them in Ukraine and their smell is associated with a summer field.” — Designed by [MasterBundles](http://masterbundles.com/) from Ukraine.

A Bloom Of Jellyfish

“I love going to aquariums – the colors, patterns, and array of blue hues attract the nature lover in me while still appeasing my design eye. One of the highlights is always the jellyfish tanks. They usually have some kind of light show in them, which makes the jellyfish fade from an intense magenta to a deep purple — and it literally tickles me pink. We discovered that the collective noun for jellyfish is a bloom and, well, it was love-at-first-collective-noun all over again. I’ve used some intense colors to warm up your desktop and hopefully transport you into the depths of your own aquarium.” — Designed by [Wonderland Collective](https://wonderlandcollective.co.za/) from South Africa.

Colorful Summer

“‘Always keep mint on your windowsill in August, to ensure that the buzzing flies will stay outside where they belong. Don’t think summer is over, even when roses droop and turn brown and the stars shift position in the sky. Never presume August is a safe or reliable time of the year.’ (Alice Hoffman)” — Designed by [Lívi](https://www.instagram.com/lenartlivia/) from Hungary.
