PS teaches you to create geometric patterns of retro vintage Posters

 

In today's tutorial, you learn the most valuable thing is that the author's ingenious creative ideas, break through the usual design thinking of the wall. Of course, and his superb use of geometric shape skills, the tutorial is not long, very suitable for novice practice!

Abstract geometric patterns in the West are also called "Greek art", or "Mediterranean style", it is said that it originated in the 900 to 700 years ago in ancient Greece, originally in the Vase decoration painting produced. It is a form of art formed by the processing and processing of the basic geometric patterns such as square, circle and triangle.

The style of abstract geometry is distinct, after years of evolution, it separates from the classical art, shaking body into modern, fashionable, concise style of endorsement. In our daily life design, we will often see its existence, even in the recent popular low polygon can also see this kind of art form shadow.

Today we're going to learn if we make this kind of abstract geometric style poster, and we want to add grunge texture to this poster, let it appear nostalgic, but also the atmosphere, fashion.

　　Second, the construction of geometry

1, open the AI began to draw the basic structure of graphics

Let's first draw a few of the most basic rectangular, rectangular in the following way, you can also according to the way you like to compose. It's true! Some people say this is something like a building plan? This is probably the most direct source of inspiration for this kind of composition.

Abstract composition does not seem to have clear rules to follow, natural random to create, if there is doubt about it, you can refer to the clouds in the sky of the kind of free and complex changes. Stop to observe the clear sky.

When drawing a basic graphic, you must note that the rectangle is used to make the composition, and should not be allowed to participate in the line. The reason for this is that when we fill in the color for each rectangle, the place with a straight line is obviously not going to fill it smoothly.

Of course, each rectangle has 22 overlapping edges, no gaps, so that the shape will look more beautiful.

Let's add a few more rectangles and it turns out to be this way.

2, deformation

Next, the shape is deformed by a column of up to two rectangles. There are many ways to deform, and today we are using the "tilt" tool.

Select "Object > Transform > Tilt", Pop-up tilt Setup Panel, the angle in the panel input-40 degrees, "axis" This option to select "Vertical", click on the confirmation, the graphics have changed.

When you turn the angle to 40 degrees, the graph tilts toward the opposite place, and the adjusted effect of this error-tilted angle is as follows:

3. Coloring

Let's start by coloring each piece, where I use the red, yellow and blue three colors, and you can also play it free. Some choose the whole block fill, some use the gradient, and some of them I also selected the basic line pattern in the palette.

Window > Swatches > Open Swatch Library > Pattern > Basic Graphics > Basic graphics-lines

Select the object you want to fill, and then click the corresponding pattern, the object becomes a line pattern fill.

If you do not know how to paint, then this group of resources is too timely, immediately help! "with the use!" proprietary flat design PS Color Board (color library)

The harmony of the color here is important, the basic point of one that is to try to stay in 3-5 colors, so that the whole picture is not messy, and finally I made the following effect:
