Sean Leo – Project 05 – Wallpaper

For my wallpaper I thought to use a textile pattern I was familiar with. Houndstooth is useful in that it can be scaled to be very small or abstractly large.

var x1 = 10; //changing the value of x1 will change the scaling of the pattern
var x2 = x1*2;
var x3 = x1*3;
var x4 = x1*4;
var y1 = x1;
var y2 = y1*2;
var y3 = y1*3;
var y4 = y1*4;
var value = 0;
