Bauhaus engine

Name: bauhaus. Output: SVG. Composes geometric shapes — a background, a rectangle, a circle, and a line — with hash-driven sizes, positions, and rotations, optionally adding more shapes.

Avatar::engine('bauhaus')
    ->seed('user@example.com')
    ->size(256)
    ->numShapes(6)
    ->generate();

Options​

OptionMethodTypeDefault
Number of shapesnumShapes()int4

The base composition always uses four shapes. When numShapes is greater than 4, each additional shape is one of a triangle, hexagon, small circle, or small rectangle, selected and placed from the seed's hash.

Colors​

The color palette is not configurable. The engine selects one of four built-in warm palettes based on the seed's hash. The numColors builder option does not affect this engine.
