This series is based on a simple algorithm with lines of random lengths and colors diversely and disorderly drawn on a square grid.

Miniscapes by Rick Crane and Rich Poole

@rickacrane

Rick Crane is an illustrator and designer who creates minimal, geometric designs inspired by nature.

His work is technical and playful, expressed using detailed line work, soft color palettes, and simple shapes.

Miniscapes is a collaborative series between Rick and Rich, merging generative code with meticulously designed scenes and elements to create minimalist landscapes intended to charm, delight, and surprise.

Staccato by Jason Dartford

@jasondartford

Jason Dartford is a generative and digital artist with a self-proclaimed unhealthy obsession with geometry (healthy, in my opinion).

His work explores the realms of 2D and 3D geometry, conveyed with varying perspectives and bold yet complementary colors.

Staccato is a generative series, inspired by minimalist geometric art, containing three basic repeating shapes that form a bold, colorful, and pleasing design.
