Knapp system

Inspired by art of Stefan Knapp, particularly his large-scale enamel mosaics and modular compositions, I’ve designed* this procedural mosaic generator.

The system constructs a non-uniform grid by partitioning space into square modules of varying sizes. Larger tiles expand or yield to smaller ones, establishing a controlled relationship between hierarchy and distribution.

Each tile acts as a container for a parametric gradient component. The gradients are defined through multiple radial zones and a constrained color palette, referencing the material qualities and tonal transitions present in Knapp’s work.

*(I wish I could say it was all coded by me as well but chatGPT was involved and it seems important to mention considering the rules of this sub)
