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
Design the system.
Play the visuals.

ADVANCED CREATIVE TOOLS

Developer Response
Thanks a lot for your review — it really means a lot, even when it’s a bit nuanced.Just to clarify one important point: saving your projects is actually free, unlimited, and synced across all your Apple devices via iCloud.What is paid is the export (PNG, JPEG, SVG, PDF, etc.), which helps support the development of the app.That said, if you don’t want to pay, there’s always a simple workaround — taking a screenshot works too. Of course, with a screenshot you won’t have control over framing, resolution, or export format.Thanks again for your feedback — and I hope you’ll consider updating your rating.
