Art Nouveau Ornamental Panels

The Four Seasons Arc

Rotating floral halo cross-fades through four seasonal colourways — spring sage, summer rose, autumn gold, winter teal — each with distinct petal count.

When to use it

Decorative ambient display, seasonal landing pages, art-nouveau themed hero sections needing slow looping color transitions.

When not to

Contexts requiring legible text overlays at center — the rotating bloom occupies the focal point. Reduced-motion users see only a static frame.

Working with an AI agent

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

Change Spring petal count from 5 to 8, set the Spring accent color to '#e84393', and slow the season hold time from 2.8 to 5 seconds. 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

  • SEASONS array (colourway, petal count per season)
  • hold duration (2.8s between transitions)
  • halo rotation speed (tHalo += dt)
  • cross-fade speed (mix + dt*1.6)
  • halo ring petals count (N=18)
  • canvas background color (#f4ecd8)
  • theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)

Keep intact

  • DPR-aware fitCanvas + resize handler
  • visibilitychange start/stop
  • prefers-reduced-motion guard (static draw)
  • IIFE wrapper
  • theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)

Known limitations

  • Reduced-motion users see only a single static frame — no season cycling
  • Season label uses Marcellus/Georgia fallback; no Google Font loaded so display depends on system fonts

  • The HaloThree nested SVG rings of gilded beads and teardrops rotate on slow opposing axes around a breathing gold rosette, evoking Art Nouveau's decorative halos.
  • Whiplash VinesSinuous sage and teal tendrils grow and curl on parchment; each vine ends in a rose or gold bezier-petal bloom, fades, and the cycle restarts.
  • Border WeaverMirrored Art Nouveau bands draw themselves stroke by stroke — gold sine scrolls, sage waves, rose petals, and teal beads trace across parchment then reset.
  • 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.
  • 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,…
