You’ve all seen it before, because frankly, this trend has been all over the place and for quite a few years now. But you don’t really know how to describe it — a bunch of similarly colored triangles or rectangles combining to create a intricate geometric shape, which somehow manages to be abstract but still demonstrates a clear figure of some sort? What is this magical style and how was it created?

We’ve got you covered — it’s been dubbed low-poly art. The name refers back to the style’s origin as rendering 3D models for video games. Though it seems as if you are using many polygons, in reality there are relatively few in comparison to the number that would be used to create a mesh for a more realistic and detailed 3D image.

And while now video games have far and away surpassed this level of detail, it has become a rather regular trend to see in the 2D graphic design world and has increasingly diversifying in  how designers are using it, both in their unique design style and for what purpose 

Geometric designs are one of the most visually appealing forms in graphic design. They can appear in a wide variety of styles and fulfill a huge range of roles.

This blog post tells you few thing you need to know about these designs and shows you how to create your own unique piece.

However, before we get into how you can create designs, it’s important to know exactly what they are.

At its core, design is based on shapes. Geometric shapes design – with circles, triangles, squares, rectangles, and many other shapes often combine to form beautifully intricate patterns. Even if you only use a few shapes in your design, there are so many possibilities as to what you can create. 

They have first used thousands of years ago in the art of many ancient civilizations, and it is their unique ability to stand the test of time that sets them apart
