WHAT CUSTOMERS SAY
FINETUNE YOUR WORKFLOW AND BECOME A PRO TOO
Visuals/mock-ups
For advertisements, presentations, and pre-sales. Visualize a design on a final product, before it is produced. Create areas in the photo where different colors or patterns will be applied, adjust shadows, determine color and size in advance.
All within a workflow that allows for quick switching between colors and patterns.
Color variants
You can create unlimited color variants of a single pattern using a photo or a scan. Preserve color nuances, contrast, and details. Various methods are available.
Ideal for visuals or for printing on a wide range of materials such as wallpaper, panels, carpet, vinyl, fabric, and more.
Seamless design
When you join the edges of a photo or a scan, you may notice a seam. We need to create a seamless loop in the pattern and correct the color difference on both halves to achieve an endless design.
Ideal for endless printing on wallpaper, carpet, vinyl, panels, fabric, or as a texture in mock-ups & visuals …
Corrections
Correcting excess elements in a photo or a scan, such as spots, color deviations, unnecessary details, errors, dust particles, scratches... Removing, adjusting, or adding them.
Adjust contrast, color, and details to avoid unwanted color spots when further editing later on.

ABOUT ANNEMIE
"As a 'surface designer', Annemie works for printers, engravers and manufacturers of floors, doors, wallpaper, fabrics, walls, kitchen worktops, wall and furniture panels, wall art and even car dashboards.
She edits the scans of her creations in Photoshop: make corrections, adjust details - remove or add, change color and contrast where necessary. After the corrections she makes the print layout, at this stage the design is made seamless “allover”, so that the printer can print endlessly, without visible seams. In preparation for color matching, she first makes color separations and digital color studies in order to finally deliver different color variants as print-ready files.
During the design process she creates visuals/mock-ups: designs are placed on interior pictures to test how large the layout of a design should be, and which colors fit best in an interior. Those visuals are also used as a sales, marketing and publicity tool, because this way brands can work ahead and they do not have to wait to show the result in an interior until the material has actually been produced.
Her work is her passion and she takes on every new assignment and challenge with equal pleasure."
