Vector Fields

A Figma plugin for generating customizable vector field patterns

Visit figma.com ↗

Vector Fields is a free, open-source Figma plugin by Daniel Destefanis that creates complex generative patterns using lines, dots, or custom SVGs. It lets designers adjust parameters like rotation, spiral, strength, and spacing directly in the plugin interface before sending the resulting vector layers into a Figma frame. It is particularly useful for creating generative background textures, posters, and album artwork without manual drafting.

What it's for

  • Generate generative vector background patterns for digital or print designs
  • Create complex poster and album artwork using repeatable mathematical fields
  • Populate Figma frames with organized grids of custom SVG shapes oriented by field forces

Features

  • Pattern generation using lines, dots, or user-provided custom SVGs
  • Parameter controls for offset, rotation, spiral effect, strength, size, and spacing
  • Direct export button to send generated vector layers into the Figma canvas
  • High-density grid support (e.g., 128x128 matrices)

Pricing

Free and open source

Why it was saved

  • @daniel__designs, 11 July 2024: Generative pattern art that would be hard to build manually (e.g. a 128×128 frame with hundreds of vector layers) — useful for posters, album art, backgrounds.
