The idea

Creative freedom.
Production constraints.

The image needs to work as a physical mosaic. Palette selection, canvas format and color counts are part of the same process.

Challenge

Turn the detail and colors of a photograph into a limited-color pattern that can be assembled by hand.

Solution

Image analysis and color clustering, paired with selectable palettes and canvas sizes.

Outcome

A generated pattern with a color chart and diamond counts to help prepare and assemble the painting.

Interactive demo

One image.
Four interpretations.

Switch the palette, then drag the divider to see how the photo becomes a mosaic. The color chart below follows your selection.
