LEARN FROM INDUSTRY LEADERS!
 

Never before have we seen a course like this!  

It has seriously got. it. all. You will learn 25 different styles of print designs, from original concept to composition and cleaning elements to the final repeat tile. You'll be working side-by-side with our experienced, on-staff designers, who utilize these very techniques, every day in the studio.

Not quite sure what a 'repeating pattern' is?

... Or why you really need to know how to make one, in such a variety of ways?


Fact is, unless you're a working designer or illustrator, you don't. You don't need to know this particular skill, because it's very specific to the fashion, homewares, wallpaper, stationery, and packaging design industries. It's the technique that allows your design to run seamlessly and endlessly across a roll of paper or fabric.
 

But surely any design can do that if you let it multiply?

 

Not really, no. Because no one wants to wear a summer dress with flower motifs cut off awkwardly in places, or with a big empty passage right down the center of a bikini bottom. And more importantly, no client will come back to you if your design shows those flaws on their end garment. 
 
In this part of the design world (the one that is bursting with paying, commercial clients) this repeat thing is A THING.

You just can't learn this stuff on YouTube

 

How many hours have you spent Googling 'repeat tutorials' and found NONE of the skills apply to the specific design you are working on?

Ever run your pattern fill test only to find there are:

big holes in your design?

unattractive rows of the same motifs?

or unintentionally overlapping elements?

If you've ever struggled to make a seamless repeat, and (and believe us, we've all been there!) you'll want to hear about this course:
