Art Nouveau Ornamental Panels

Border Weaver

Mirrored Art Nouveau bands draw themselves stroke by stroke — gold sine scrolls, sage waves, rose petals, and teal beads trace across parchment then reset.

When to use it

Decorative loading screens, Art Nouveau / botanical themed headers, ornamental framing for editorial layouts.

When not to

Contexts requiring legible text overlays in band zones; layouts where the hardcoded parchment background conflicts with the page color.

Working with an AI agent

Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:

Change the reveal cycle from 6 seconds to 10 by setting `const cycle=10`, then swap the gold scroll color to terracotta by changing `PAL.gold` to `'#b5522a'`. Theme: dark tokens live in :root, the light variant in :root[data-theme="light"]; ?theme=light or a {type:'forever:theme'} postMessage switches at runtime.

Safe to edit

  • reveal cycle duration (cycle=6)
  • band vertical positions (H*0.22 / H*0.78)
  • palette colors (PAL object)
  • scroll amplitude (amp=16*dir)
  • petal size (len=13, wid=4)
  • theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)

Keep intact

  • IIFE wrapper
  • prefers-reduced-motion guard (REDUCED flag)
  • visibilitychange pause/resume
  • DPR-aware fitCanvas()
  • theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)

Known limitations

  • Background color hardcoded in both CSS and canvas fillRect — must change in two places
  • Purely passive — no touch or pointer interactivity
  • Petal orientation uses a fixed rotate offset; looks asymmetric on very narrow viewports

  • Floral Mandala12 mirrored sectors of sage stems, leaves, and gold-cored petaled flowers breathe and slowly rotate around a central rosette on a dark warm ground.
  • The Four Seasons ArcRotating floral halo cross-fades through four seasonal colourways — spring sage, summer rose, autumn gold, winter teal — each with distinct petal count.
  • Stained RibbonThree layered ribbons in teal, sage, and peach undulate across a dark ground in a stacked sine-wave motion, edged in gold with glinting enamel bead accents.
  • Mosaic TendrilsColored beads bloom and connect with gradient lines, branching into tendrils that slowly replace oldest nodes. Art Nouveau palette: gold, sage, rose,…
