A niche iOS drawing app for sacred geometry and tattoo sketching created for US tattoo artist Dillon Forte.

Forte Tattoos LLC is the studio of US tattoo artist Dillon Forte. His brand focuses on sacred geometry and highly detailed tattoo work, and this iOS app is part of his toolkit and product line for designing tattoo sketches and geometric patterns.
When Innowise joined the project, the sacred geometry drawing app already had a strong creative idea behind it. The client wanted to finish and refine an iOS drawing tool that could support advanced symmetry, tattoo sketching, and geometric exploration — and be ready for long-term evolution in the App Store.
Highly specialized symmetry algorithms. The app supports:
These algorithms have almost no analogs in other drawing apps. That meant no reference implementation to compare against when debugging or testing.
Our team’s focus was to strengthen the foundation, expand the creative feature set, and build a testing approach that respects the mathematical nature of sacred geometry. Working closely with the client, we ensured the development process aligned with their creative vision and technical requirements, while adhering to their budget and workflow.
The first step was to set up a streamlined delivery process that suited both the client’s artistic approach and the project’s constraints. This process was designed to ensure continuous feedback while remaining flexible enough to adapt to creative changes:
Before we could introduce new symmetry and 3D features, it was essential to stabilize the core app. We began by focusing on making the everyday drawing experience more reliable and predictable. Our team worked on:
After the first App Store release, the team continued to focus on stabilization. We prepared new builds and sent them through TestFlight to incrementally improve stability and address edge cases discovered during real usage.
The heart of the app is its symmetry engine, which allows users to create intricate patterns in both 2D and 3D spaces. Here, the team worked closely with the client to refine and expand the creative capabilities:
Together, these changes turned the app into a comprehensive creative tool: from drawing on a flat canvas to building complex symmetrical designs and then projecting them onto 3D objects.
Because the product dealt with sacred geometry and tattoo design, both visual quality and mathematical precision were equally important. To ensure the app met these standards, we developed a QA process specifically around the mathematical rules governing the symmetry used in the app. That approach included:
This combination of mobile QA, geometry knowledge, and regular TestFlight feedback from the client turned this project into a strong internal example of how to test mathematically driven visualization features in a creative app.

The evolution of the sacred geometry drawing app strengthened both its creative power and its reliability as a professional tool for tattoo design and geometric art. Working side by side with the client, Innowise helped achieve several key outcomes:
