Blend ideas together with Mix

Combine multiple images into a single hybrid concept and control how each one influences the final result.

​
When to use Mix

Mix is a legacy workflow inside Workbench that allows you to merge two or more images into a new visual direction. Use Mix when:
  • Exploring form language between concepts
  • Blending materials or structures
  • Combining brand DNA with your own shape
  • Testing unexpected creative pairings
Mix is best suited for early stage exploration where discovering in between ideas is more important than refining a single direction. Note: Mix is now a legacy workflow in Vizcom.

​
How to use Mix

Using Mix in Workbench:
1

Create a new file from your dashboard and open a Workbench canvas.

2

Insert a Mix block from the top toolbar.

3

Connect images to the Mix block using the (+) button.

4

Click Mix Images and allow processing.

5

Use the slider interface to control how much influence each image has.

6

Adjust ratios and regenerate to explore variations.

​
Best practices when using Mix

  • Align your inputs
    • Choose source images with similar perspective, scale, and orientation.
    • Align key features along similar axes for cleaner blends.
    • Consistent positioning produces more intentional results.
  • Start with two strong elements
    • Begin with two clear, well defined inputs.
    • A 50 / 50 mix creates balanced outcomes.
    • Adjust ratios to emphasize specific design features.
    • Small percentage shifts can significantly change results.
  • Explore transitions intentionally
    • Mix geometric and organic forms to study silhouette evolution.
    • Combine contrasting materials to test visual harmony.
    • Use strong results as new inputs for further exploration.
  • Experiment freely
    • Unexpected combinations can unlock unique design directions.
    • Treat Mix as a visual conversation between concepts.

​
Tips & FAQs

If blends feel chaotic, reduce the number of inputs or align them more carefully before mixing.
FAQs:
  • Why does my mix look inconsistent? Large differences in perspective, lighting, or scale between inputs can create unstable blends. Normalize your inputs first.
