Overview

I implemented a theme that combines abstract geometric and psychedelic aesthetics. The concept is designed for use on iPad and iPhone cases. The idea is to use simple lines and shapes, repeat them over multiple layers to create complex arrangements.

In order to let users easily create attractive designs, the sketchpad uses two invisible grids. Points originate from and/or snap to anchors on this invisible grid resulting in repeatable patterns that are aesthetically pleasing and tile-able across small and large cases alike.
