Arts & Crafts Pattern Repeats

The Wallpaper Loom

A seamless Arts-and-Crafts botanical tile — olive stems, sage leaves, a madder flower, and indigo berry clusters — scrolls diagonally on a warm cream ground.

When to use it

Arts-and-crafts or heritage brand backgrounds, decorative hero sections, nature or textile themed UIs.

When not to

Layouts requiring legible text overlays — the scrolling pattern competes with foreground content. Light minimal design systems.

Working with an AI agent

Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:

Change patSize to 180 for a larger repeat tile, swap PAL.madder to '#8b5e3c' for an earthy rust flower, and slow scroll speed from dt*10 to dt*5. Theme: dark tokens live in :root, the light variant in :root[data-theme="light"]; ?theme=light or a {type:'forever:theme'} postMessage switches at runtime.

Safe to edit

  • tile repeat size (patSize=132)
  • scroll speed (dt*10)
  • palette colors (PAL object)
  • vignette opacity (rgba ink .12)
  • leaf scale values (sc param in leaf calls)
  • theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)

Keep intact

  • DPR-aware fitCanvas setup
  • prefers-reduced-motion guard (REDUCED)
  • visibilitychange pause/resume
  • IIFE wrapper
  • theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)

Known limitations

  • Tile is procedurally drawn at a fixed 132px grid — resize requires rebuilding via buildTile(), not just scaling
  • Diagonal scroll direction is hardcoded (translate -off, +off); changing direction needs both axes adjusted
