Tomodachi Life Interior Wallpaper Grid Planner

Use this plan when designing repeating interior patterns: wallpapers, floor textures, fabric prints, and background tiles that need to look seamless when tiled.

Workflow order

Follow these steps before exporting so the grid stays practical to copy by hand.

  1. Design with tiling in mind — edges must match opposite sides.
  2. Use 4–8 colors maximum for clean repeating textures.
  3. Start with a simple motif and repeat it across the grid.
  4. Use 32x32 for most wallpapers; 48x48 for complex patterns.

Cleanup checks

Use these checks after color matching and before the numbered export.

  • Verify seamless tiling by previewing the pattern repeated 2x2.
  • Check that no hard edges break the repeat at tile boundaries.
  • Ensure the color count stays low for clean room-scale rendering.
