Create Seamless Patterns In Canva With This Amazing AI Tool

Introduction

When considering visual branding, many people focus primarily on colors, fonts, and logos. However, one overlooked yet impactful element to consider is a signature pattern. In this article, we will explore how to leverage a new AI tool in Canva to create seamless patterns tailored for your brand. Let's dive in!

Introducing Patterned AI

Patterned AI is a new application within Canva that allows users to generate seamless patterns based on textual descriptions. With access to a library of thousands of patterns, this tool enables you to create unlimited unique designs that can be used for backgrounds, branding, event invitations, and personal merchandise.

Getting Started

To begin, click on the option to use Patterned AI in a new design and select the presentation template. This allows you to crop the images you create and use them across various marketing materials.

Once Patterned AI opens, you'll observe that the default view is under the "Create" tab. Here, you can specify the elements, colors, and background of your desired pattern. If you’re using it for the first time, you can select the number of images you want to generate and then click "Generate Pattern." You may need to sign in if you haven’t already.

Exploring the Gallery

The second tab available is the "Gallery," allowing you to search for existing patterns or select from pre-populated options displayed under the search bar. For instance, typing “Floral” will pull results for various floral-patterned designs. You can click on a pattern to zoom in or out and add it to your ongoing design.

Creating Your Custom Pattern

In this tutorial, I will create a pattern that complements my website’s aesthetic. I primarily use greens and browns in my designs, so I’ll describe the desired colors and theme in the tool.

For my pattern description, I have chosen: “Watercolor greenery with browns, golds, and dark green accents.” I’ll stick with generating two images by clicking "Generate Pattern."

The results are impressive; both patterns fit my style nicely. I can zoom in on my favorite design and add it to my ongoing project, while also selecting the second design as a backup.

Adjusting Your Pattern

After adding a pattern, you can further edit it within Canva's photo editor if needed. For example, you can adjust the temperature of the image, tweak the tint, or modify shadows to better suit your branding.

Downloading Your Pattern

Once satisfied with your design, click on "Share" in the top right corner, then select "Download." Scroll down to choose the PNG file type, and select the specific pages you want to download. By default, all pages are selected, but you can deselect them and opt for just the pages you wish to save. In my case, I’ll select the leaves pattern and click "Done" before downloading it to my computer.
