Nature pattern generator

The patterns the ground and the woods make: topographic contours, a leaf toss, wood grain, shell and patch. A small family, and the one that most often ends up as a background someone did not notice was a repeat.

Every pattern in the family

Read out of the engine itself — 5 patterns, each with the motif it is built from:

What it is for

Endpapers, packaging, outdoor and workwear prints, and map-like wall art.

How to use it

  1. Open GeoPrint and pick the family, then the pattern — or describe what you want in a few words and let the engine choose.
  2. Put your palette on it. The inks come from the palette, so one pattern gives a whole range without redrawing anything.
  3. Set the repeat width in centimetres and check it against the ruler on the stage: what you see is the size it prints.
  4. Export a seamless tile as PNG or SVG, or an A4 sheet with a centimetre ruler for a printer.

Questions

How many nature patterns are there?

5 in this family, listed above, out of 168 in the GeoPrint engine. Each one takes your palette, your scale and your repeat size, so the count is the starting point rather than the limit.

Are the patterns really seamless?

Yes, by construction: the pattern is sampled on a torus, so the tile meets itself exactly at every edge. Nothing is cropped or mirrored to fake a join.

Can I set the repeat size in centimetres?

Yes. The repeat width is a setting, the ruler along the stage measures it, and the export carries it — which is what a printer asks for.

What does it cost?

Looking is free on every plan. Exporting a GeoPrint tile is part of Pro and Studio; the free tier exports from the Sett engine, and no plan puts a watermark on a file.
