Launch Rosette Designer
Rosette Designer Web Edition is a web-browser-based application that helps in the design of mosaic soundhole rosettes for use in acoustic guitar construction. The program allows a luthier to easily experiment with rosette designs, drawing directly on the rosette to color individual tile elements. Mosaic designs can be saved for later modification and use, exported as PNG images, and exported as PDF files that include an expanded tile map and parameters needed for constructing the rosette (color counts, tile and row/column dimensions, etc.)
This is the Javascript version of the application, which runs right in the web browser of any PC (Windows/Linux) or Mac. Just click the link below to launch.

The only difference is that this runs in your web browser, and thus doesn’t need to be downloaded and doesn’t require any additional setup (e.g., a Java runtime).
