Desktop Wallpaper: January 2026 With Mandy Tsou
Kick off 2026 with a fresh Designer Desktop featuring Mandy Tsou and a grounding design reminiscent of shapes and colors found in nature.
We’re kicking off a new year of Designer Desktops, one of our longest-running columns, with an artist whose work brings immediate joy to the screen. This month’s download comes from Los Angeles-based Mandy Tsou of Mandy Tea Design, known for her playful illustrations, muted color palette, and cinematic approach to storytelling. Her growing client list includes La Marzocco, Anthropologie, and Lalo, who tap her talent to infuse warmth, charm, and narrative into their visual worlds. From coffee-inspired illustrations to thoughtful, reflective works, Tsou’s practice is rooted in observation, capturing small moments and bigger ideas with equal care.
This month’s design feels quietly grounding, drawing on organic shapes and earthy tones that echo nature – like oversized lily pads and rolling hills. It offers a tranquil visual retreat for the eyes, serving as a calming backdrop for all your tech devices.
