    for (var y = 0; y < height; y ++) {

       // using modulus operator to determine even or odd row



       for (var x = 0; x < width; x ++) {

            // using spacing multipliers to get accurate spacing

            var py = y * h;
            var px = x * w;

            rectMode(CENTER);


            rect(px, py, 50, 50);


            //coinciding geometries based on positions by changing rectMode to center
            //applying gradient to wallpaper

            stroke(180, 200 - py * 0.5, 300 - py * 0.5);
            rect(px, py, 35, 35);
            ellipse(px, py, 50, 50);
            stroke(200, 30, 50);
            ellipse(px, py, 60, 60);

      }

    }
    noLoop();
}

In this project, I explored using nested for loops to create a wallpaper from coinciding geometries, which created interesting overlapping shapes. By doing this and applying a color gradient, the different geometries created through the for loop develop into an interesting pattern design.
