Designgraphik is Michael Paul Young. His innovative work has been exhibited worldwide, from the 500,000 LED pixels of U2’s 360° Tour to a 70-foot tall projection on Richard Meier’s The Hague City Hall. He has won awards including the Clio and the Cannes Gold Cyber Lion and has spoken at the world’s most renowned design conventions and festivals. At the turn of the millennium, Young found himself needing a place to explore and test the boundaries of online digital art, resulting in his creation of the Designgraphik name and website. Whether on the web at that site and others like Submethod and Vir2l, in print, or on various hard media, his goal was always the exploration and testing of boundaries, under presentation circumstances that he controlled, in environments that were his own proprietary creations. The work helped to shape online design throughout the late 90s and early 00s, and was nominated for and won numerous multimedia and online design awards until Young retired the Designgraphik name in 2010. In 2020, as we enter the fourth decade of life online, nothing is proprietary. Online art is democratized and sanitized, cropped, compressed, formatted, influenced, ranked, rated and ultimately forgotten in a dark corner of a corporate data center. And so Young has re-launched the Designgraphik name and ethos, once again in presentation circumstances under his control, in an environment that is his own proprietary creation. The ultimate expression of that concept is this app, designed to present Young's work as Designgraphik in high resolution, in a custom gallery, for free.

Creating your own wallpapers is rewarding and fun. Why endlessly browse for an image that is close to what you want, when you can make your own? Fluffy Monster works in a three dimensional world, warping and bending both color and space to make stunning wallpapers for your favorite devices. Start with a grid of points. The grid can range from 9 points (3x3) to 49 (7x7) points and anything between. Each point can have a color or a twist, or both. Twists and colors can be copied from point to point making a repeating pattern. Fluffy Monster has built-in undo/redo. Undo is accessed by the standard 3 finger tap gesture or a shake of the device. Looking for inspiration? Fluffy Monster has a collection of pre-made Monsters to view and learn from. There is also a Monster Generator to randomly create patterns for inspiration. Have you made a Monster that you would like the world to see? Send your Monster to the Monster Zoo for others to download and admire. Fluffy Monster uses auto-renewing subscriptions.
