Draw seamless textures
What if you prefer to draw your own textures, especially when working with unique, locally sourced materials?
A number of years ago, when I was working on a project in a rural area, I needed a stone wall texture that matched the local materials and context. None of the existing texture libraries had what I was looking for, and at this early design stage, we were working with a 3D model based on a precise survey and dimensions, sketched visuals were primarily used. Unfortunately, there were limited sketched textures available that fit the context. The best solution? Drawing the texture by hand - but traditional tools made it difficult to visualize how it would repeat seamlessly. click here to see an example of drawn texture on Instagram
That experience led to the creation of this online drawing tool for seamless textures, featuring real-time pattern visualisation. Instead of being confined to a single tile, you can see your design repeat instantly, making the process more intuitive.
