Studio experiment

Kaleido

A small turn. A whole new pattern.

Move mirrored forms, draw fine patterns, and turn three layers at different speeds. Make a composition, then let it keep unfolding.

Behind the experience

Start with a small move.

Drag a colored form and its reflections move with it. Turn the outer rim, let go, and watch the pattern coast. Every adjustment changes how the shapes overlap.

Leave a line behind.

Choose Draw and move anywhere inside the rim. Each stroke becomes a mirrored pattern in another color from your palette. Clear drawing removes the lines while keeping the forms in place.

Find a rhythm. Let it run.

Press Play for continuous rotation. In Motion, give each of the three layers its own speed: forward, backward, or still. Pause keeps your settings so you can adjust the composition and pick up where you left off. Twelve palettes change the color without clearing your work.

From experiment to page

A visual rhythm built from a few shapes

Kaleido explores how repetition, overlap, and different rhythms can make a small set of forms feel varied. For a brand page, that approach could become a slow ambient composition, a short reveal, or an optional interaction. The shapes, typography, color, and pace would be designed around the brand, with space kept clear for the page’s message and main action.

What could motion bring to your website?

A quiet background, a short visual story, or something visitors can shape. We’ll start with your brand, your page, and what people need to do there.
