  Creative Compound Path Designs in Adobe Illustrator The image above shows different creative designs made using the Compound Path tool in Adobe Illustrator. Compound Path is a very useful feature for combining shapes and text in unique ways. It allows designers to cut shapes, merge them, or use text in combination with shapes to create attractive designs. In this work, we can see multiple examples. The Airtel logo style is created in red color with the text cut inside a box. This shows how text and shape can be merged to form a clean design. Similarly, the blue circle with “Sai” text highlights how personal names can be styled using compound paths, giving a professional and decorative look. Another example is the green circle with the Canva text , which is made with a gradient effect.

It is a simple flower-like shape drawn with black strokes. Outlines are the foundation for applying Pathfinder effects. Next, using Outline with Divide , the shape is broken down into smaller sections. Each part can be filled with different colors, making the design look more vibrant and detailed. This option is useful when you want to separate overlapping areas into individual shapes. The third step shows Outline with Exclude . Here, the overlapping sections of the shape are removed, and the remaining parts form a unique pattern. In this e...

 Adobe Illustrator is one of the most powerful tools for creating vector-based graphics, and among its many features, the Ellipse Tool and the Shape Builder Tool stand out for their simplicity and versatility. These two tools, when used together, can transform basic shapes into creative and professional designs. The Ellipse Tool allows designers to create perfect circles and ovals. It is often the starting point for many shapes and logos. By simply dragging and holding the Shift key, we can draw a perfect circle. In the example above, we begin with a basic circle, then duplicate and align multiple circles to form layered designs. Once we have overlapping shapes, the Shape Builder Tool comes into action. This tool helps us combine, cut, or divide different parts of the shapes. By selecting multiple shapes and dragging through the overlapping sections, we can merge them into a single object. Similarly, we can remove unnecessary portions by holding the Alt key and clicking on th...
