GeoMaker is a pattern studio that never runs dry. Pick one of 70 generative engines, move its levers, and watch original art redraw instantly — every piece grown from a seed, so anything you love can be brought back, tuned again, and saved to Photos in full resolution. TOUCH THE ART Fifteen engines respond to your fingers. Comb floating ink like real suminagashi marbling. Tap wave crests and clouds into an irezumi background. Fracture kintsugi ceramic and paint the gold vein yourself. Bend a maze through a lens, drag the focus of an op-art illusion, morph a living fractal. Turn on kaleidoscope symmetry and one drag becomes six. THE JAPANESE COLLECTION Made by a tattoo artist, GeoMaker goes unusually deep on classical Japanese pattern: sayagata and higaki frets, asanoha hemp-leaf, seigaiha waves, shippō, kikkō, kagome, yagasuri, uroko, ichimatsu, bishamon kikkō armor, matsukawabishi pine-bark, tatewaku rising steam, hanabishi, raimon thunder scrolls, kumiko lattices, kintsugi, indigo shibori, irezumi waves, clouds and mist, and kiku & sakura florals. AND EVERYTHING ELSE • Organic — flow fields, reaction-diffusion, differential growth, mycelium, Voronoi, terrazzo • Sacred & geometric — flower of life, mandalas, Metatron's cube, hex tilings, truchet, Islamic girih, Celtic knots • Wallpaper classics — polka-dot motifs, stripes & chevrons, herringbone parquet, fish scales, low-poly mesh, circuit boards • Mathematical — Penrose aperiodic tiling, Archimedean tessellations, spirograph, mazes & the Hilbert curve, Greek key frets, op art • Fractal — Mandelbrot & Julia, L-systems, the Apollonian gasket, strange attractors MAKE IT YOURS • 18 curated palettes, black & grey to neon — or desaturate any palette into greyscale • Line weight on every pattern, from hairline etching to bold marker • Paper grain and vignette finishing • Seeds: same seed, same art — copy a link that reproduces the exact piece • A favorites shelf that stores the full recipe of anything you make • Full-resolution PNG export through the share sheet Four patterns are free forever, fully featured. A single one-time purchase unlocks everything else — no subscription, ever. Private by design: no account, no ads, no tracking, no data collected. Works completely offline. From Vesica Studio — sibling to the Vesica sacred-geometry drawing app.

Patternify turns a single shape into a seamless pattern you can use anywhere - a phone wallpaper, a desktop background, wrapping paper, or a print for the wall. Pick a traditional motif, crop a photo from your gallery, or draw your own shape with your finger. The app repeats it into a pattern that tiles perfectly in every direction, with no visible seams and no design skills needed. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Start from 16 traditional motifs: cherry blossom, camellia, plum blossom, chrysanthemum, leaf, maple, bamboo, hemp leaf, blue waves, cloud, crane, koi, seven treasures, star, diamond and dot - Turn any photo into a motif. Pan and zoom to choose the part you want, and the app builds a seamless tile out of it - Draw your own motif by hand. A live strip under the canvas shows how your strokes repeat while you are still drawing - Mix up to four shapes in one pattern. Spread them alternating, checkered or at random, or overlay them stacked in the same cell - Borrow a shape from any of the built-in patterns to drop into your mix - Choose from 12 traditional color palettes, or pick your own colors by hand - Shape the repeat with six symmetries: grid, brick, mirror, four fold kaleidoscope, six fold kaleidoscope and diamond - Drag the canvas to spin and resize the motif, and slide to change the repeat count, the scale and the position of the symmetry axis - Preview your pattern at real size on A5 to A3 paper, shown in both centimetres and inches, so you know exactly how it prints - Export at 2048 pixels as a PNG, ready for a wallpaper, a print, fabric or stationery NOTHING TO SAVE Every pattern you touch is recorded in your library on its own. There is no save button to forget. Keep adjusting and the same pattern updates instead of piling up drafts, so you can come back to any of them later to rename, remix or export again. 111 PATTERNS TO START FROM The library is full from the very first launch. Open any starter pattern, remix it, and it becomes the base of something of your own. MADE FOR - Wallpapers and backgrounds for phones, tablets and desktops - Wrapping paper you designed yourself - Fabric, sticker and stationery prints - Journals, scrapbooks and collage work - Anyone who likes traditional Japanese and Korean pattern craft Pick a shape, slide the axis, and watch a pattern unfold. Download Patternify and make something worth repeating.
