Question

What's the name of the texture / design pattern found in the background of this site? http://bohemiancoding.com/sketch/

What should I search on Google to find out similar textures?

Answer 1

It is called a Voronoi (cell/noise) pattern. See:

• Wikipedia
• Photoshop has a Voronoi pattern filter: its called crystallize

Image 1: A Voronoi pattern, usinhg Photoshop crystallize. Its often a good idea to trim the corner cells away. And if possible do the cells yourself.

Fun link: A interactive Voronoi pattern click to add new cells.

Edity: this can also be the dual solution of voronoi that is called a Delunlay triangulation.
