Create visuals for posters, album covers, motion loops and optical art.
Export high-resolution images and animations ready for print, video and projection.
Use Polagone in real time for live visuals, performances and installations.
Polagone is a parametric design studio where visuals emerge from structure — not brushes.
Adjust simple controls and watch complex visuals take shape instantly.
From geometric compositions to structured pixel art and seamless motion loops, Polagone transforms simple systems into expressive visuals.
Inspired by Op Art and algorithmic art, Polagone explores a simple idea:
complex visuals can emerge from simple rules.
DESIGN WITH STRUCTURE
Build complexity from simple systems.
• Advanced grids: rectangular and polar
• Full parametric control: density, spacing, rotation, perspective, scale
• Pixel art on custom grids: isometric, radial and more
• Dynamic backgrounds: solid, gradients, transparency
Structure becomes the canvas.
A VISUAL SYNTHESIZER
Polagone is a visual instrument.
Design systems that generate visuals in real time and explore infinite variations.
• Real-time feedback while adjusting parameters
• Endless exploration through simple changes
• Discover forms you would never draw manually
• Audio reaction — visuals respond to sound in real time
• MIDI control — assign parameters and perform live

MOTION & LIVE VISUALS
Bring geometry into motion.
• Animate shapes, grids, colors and effects
• Smooth interpolation and organic motion
• BPM sync and flexible loop modes
• Seamless loops for VJing and projection
• Real-time performance with audio and MIDI
Perfect for motion loops, generative visuals and live performances.
ADVANCED CREATIVE TOOLS
• Deformers: bulge, pinch, swirl, sine
• Effects: mirror, blur, depth, gradients
• Symmetry and replication tools
• Text layers: typography becomes part of the system
• Flexible framing: square, 16:9, 4:3, custom
Build complex visuals from simple building blocks.
EXPORT & WORKFLOW
• Vector: SVG, PDF
• Print: 16-bit TIFF
• Raster: up to 8K
