How this texture was made
The checkerboard is the simplest procedural pattern: the parity of the sum of floor(x / cellSize) and floor(y / cellSize) decides whether a cell is the primary or secondary colour. This generator extends the basic version with optional diagonal offset for a diamond grid, a per-cell noise overlay for weathered vintage-tile effects, and optional rotation.
Tiny gray-toned cells with slight roundness forming a dense micro-pattern. Works well for subtle fabric-like textures, small-scale backgrounds, and detailed surface overlays.
Configuration choices
cellSize16 — sets the dominant unit size in the patternseed10 — changing this produces a different but statistically similar variant
Palette character
The palette is built around a single dusty grey tone. It sits in a neutral range with visible contrast between lighter and darker zones.
When this texture fits best
Lends itself to branded pattern libraries, wrapping paper, wallpaper, tile visualisation, and UI decoration that wants a constructed feel. Checkerboard reads as retro or technical depending on contrast and scale.
