Fluido

Key Features

• •One-Click Liquid Transformation: Fluido turns any selected layer into organic liquid metal with a single click. This eliminates the need for complex manual gradients and effects, saving hours of design time and making advanced metallic aesthetics accessible to all Figma users.
• •Any Shape to Liquid: Fluido works on rectangles, ellipses, custom vector paths, text layers, and frames, morphing them into fluid blobs instantly. This versatility means designers can apply liquid effects to any element in their composition without predefined shape restrictions.
• •Generative Chrome Textures: Each time Fluido runs, it produces unique metallic and chrome effects, ensuring no two outputs are identical. This generative approach adds organic variety, making designs feel fresh and unpredictable, perfect for creating one-of-a-kind artworks.
• •Customizable Fluid Flow, Shine, and Distortion: Users can adjust the intensity of fluid flow, metallic shine, and organic distortion to fine-tune the liquid effect. This control allows matching the output to specific branding requirements or artistic preferences, balancing automation with precision.
• •Lighting Direction Control: Version 3 introduced the ability to set the lighting direction on the liquid metal surface. Designers can now control how highlights and shadows interact, adding depth and realism to the chrome effect for more professional-looking results.
• •High-Quality Rendering: Fluido produces high-quality outputs suitable for production use in futuristic interfaces, posters, branding, and web backgrounds. Subsequent updates have fixed rendering for wide and text shapes and improved overall UI polish and error handling.

Use Cases

• •Futuristic Interface Design: A UI designer uses Fluido to transform standard buttons and navigation elements into liquid metal shapes, making the interface feel premium and high-tech. The outcome is a unique, eye-catching UI that stands out in app stores and client presentations.
• •Poster Design: A graphic artist creates promotional posters by applying Fluido to text and abstract shapes, generating organic chrome effects that draw attention. The outcome is visually striking posters with a modern, molten metal aesthetic that captures viewer interest.
• •Branding Elements: A brand designer develops a logo by starting with a simple vector shape and running Fluido to get a unique chrome effect. The outcome is a distinctive, fluid logo that conveys innovation and modernity, differentiating the brand from competitors.
