Entangle is a creative tool for designers, artists, tattooists, and illustrators to generate intricate geometric compositions through direct manipulation and experimentation. This new version of Entangle has been completely redesigned from the ground up, including both the geometric engine and the interaction system. The result is a faster, smoother, and more intuitive creative experience focused on fluid exploration and tactile control. Starting from a regular polygon, you can move, add, and remove vertices to create unique interconnected structures and evolving geometric patterns. Individual lines can be customised with different stroke widths and dash styles, allowing for precise control over the visual character of each composition. Finished creations can be exported as high-resolution JPG images or scalable vector graphics for further refinement in tools such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, or 3D modelling software. Whether you are sketching tattoo concepts, generative artworks, logos, or abstract structures, Entangle is designed to make complex geometry feel playful, tactile, and intuitive.
