Pattern Summersaults

Pattern Summersaults - student project

I loooovvvveeee tiles - the patterns you see all over Portugal and in Marocco have always fascinated me. So for this project, I started with a simple pattern, played with the different options and created some tiles you would probably imagine as kitchen floors or on balconies or in swimming pools:

The above tiles don't line up perfectly because I didn't use the "repeat" option the Kaleidomatic app offers. Still, you get the idea.

 

The same approach in Adobe capture - this is, believe it or not, the exact same base image and the way I chose to position it:

Other outcomes, after playing with color sliders and and positioning some more:

Approaching new projects with curiosity, will give you different angels, surprise your audience, and might leave your viewers with a different impression - there's so much streamlined content out there that, while it might be nice to look at, is too much like everything else. 

So here's what curiosity on a Sunday afternoon brought about in this case:

While Adobe Capture makes it very easy to store patterns in your cloud library and use them from there, I found using Kaleidomatic to be very intuitive and super easy to use, even if it takes a step or two more to export your images for further editing/processing - especially for those of you who don't have/need/want an Adobe account/subscription... However, it's almost always good to have more than one option.
