Polygonia, An Online Vector Design Generator, Streamlines Workflow & Saves Time
What do boutique retail shops, luxury hotels and trendy restaurants have in common regardless of location or price point? Good design. The aesthetics in these spaces creates a vibe that attracts clientele that are willing to pay top dollar to buy not only a product or service but also the experience these establishments provide.
The design enhances the experience—and consumers are willing to pay a premium for it.
Whether you are building engineering projects, creating corporate branding and signage, or selling jewelry, the design elements you incorporate into your products (along with functionality, materials, etc.) impact the price point you can command. If you want to sell high-end products with a healthy profit margin, then you must design to what sophisticated buyers want.
Introducing Polygonia To Create Vector Designs
One way to upgrade design is through pattern and symmetry, but these elements are often tedious to create and painful to edit. Enter Polygonia.
With Polygonia, an online vector design tool, you can rapidly create symmetrical designs for manufacturing via laser cutting, CNC, vinyl and paper cutters, 3D printing and fabric printing. Simply sketch a few lines then see them mirrored and rotated, as if looking through a kaleidoscope.
Polygonia’s design tool makes creating motifs effortless, and all those painful editing problems are gone. Want to change the size? No problem. How about a different shape? Done. Need to add, move or delete a line? Click, drag, delete. Can’t decide on a particular line? Alternate between hiding it and showing it to see the difference. It couldn’t be easier.
“The more I worked within Polygonia and the more I made with it, I knew I had to share this. It is too exciting to keep to myself,” says David Kaufman, Polygonia creator. “Now I can’t wait to see what others can do with Polygonia to up their design game.”
