About SymmetryShop

SymmetryShop is a design software from Artlandia that provides tools for creating symmetrical patterns. It includes features such as the Account, SymmetryWorks, SymmetryShop, SymmetryMill, and LivePresets so users can generate diverse and intricate designs efficiently. The software allows users to download a free demo version to explore its capabilities before purchasing the full version, which can be accessed immediately upon payment. This flexibility enables designers to test functionality and suitability for their projects. Key capabilities: the Account SymmetryWorks SymmetryShop SymmetryMill LivePresets Best for: graphic designers and artists that need to create complex symmetrical patterns easily.

Artlandia SymmetryShop is a powerful Adobe Photoshop plug-in designed to streamline the creation of seamless repeating patterns, making it an invaluable tool for textile designers, print studios, and surface pattern creators. The software allows users to select a motif or image area and automatically apply symmetry operations, including reflection, rotation, and mirroring, to generate precise repeats without the manual effort typically associated with tiling. One of its key strengths is that the patterns remain editable, meaning that designers can adjust the original motif and instantly regenerate the repeat, facilitating rapid iteration and experimentation. This capability significantly reduces the time required to move from concept to sample, making it especially useful in environments where multiple design variations are needed, such as fabric collections, wallpapers, and product surfaces. SymmetryShop integrates seamlessly into Photoshop on both Windows and Mac platforms, accessed via the Automate menu, which keeps the workflow within a familiar design environment and avoids the need for specialized CAD or textile software.

Pros & Cons

What users like
  • +Highly efficient for graphic and textile designers to generate complex repeating patterns quickly.
  • +Live-linking of motif to pattern allows fast iteration and adjustment of designs.
  • +Offers strong support for print and textile workflows thanks to precise tiling/repeat controls.
  • +Good choice for studios or brands that focus on surface design, patterns, textiles, or printed fabrics.
What users flag
  • Being a plug-in for Photoshop, users must already be familiar with Photoshop workflows.
  • Focused primarily on pattern/surface design—does not cover full garment CAD, grading, or 3D fit workflows.
  • For large-scale textile manufacturing or fully integrated CAD/CAM suites the feature set may be more limited compared to dedicated systems.
  • The depth of options (control over repeats, tiling settings) may involve a learning curve for designers new to pattern generation.
