When you’re including images on your website, you want them to draw attention at first sight. One of the things that can bring your image to life is using patterns that emphasize the colors that are being used within the image itself. Not only will it emphasize your image’s colors, it will also take your design up a notch.

Further down this post, you’ll be able to download 7 different patterns for free and use them on any of your designs without restrictions.

Let’s get to it!

Approach

  • The pattern image files that you can find in the downloaded folder contain transparent patterns and a white background
  • We’ll choose two colors from our image & apply them to our image’s gradient background (the gradient background show up through the patterns)
  • We’ll start off by going through the general steps of the design
  • Afterwards, we’ll play around with the product image’s & pattern image’s custom margin to change the pattern placement (top right, bottom right & top left)

General Steps

Add a New Section

Background Color

Start by adding a new section and using ‘#ffffff’ as its background color.

Custom Padding

We want to create some space at the top and bottom of our section. That’s why we’ll add ‘150px’ to the top and bottom padding options within the Spacing subcategory.

Add a New Row to Section

Column Structure

Once you’ve applied the previous steps to your section, go ahead and add a row with the following column structure:

Add Pattern Image Module to Column 1

Gradient Background

Now you can start adding the various modules. We’ll start with column 1 by adding an Image Module. Upload whichever one of the downloaded patterns you want to use. Then, choose the two colors from your product image that you want to use within your pattern as well. Once you do, open the Background subcategory of your Image Module and use these two colors to create a gradient background:

  • Color 1: #ebe2e3
  • Color 2: #94bce0

Sizing

Move on to the Design tab of this Image Module and use ‘60%’ for the width.

Add Product Image Module to Column 1
