Vitrail

Vitrail is a serene studio for designing stained-glass windows. Start from a window shape — a rectangular grid, a rose window, a gothic lancet — and fill each leaded section with richly coloured glass that glows as light passes through it. It’s the quiet pleasure of building a window pane by pane, with nothing to get wrong and endless colour to play with. The studio is made for flow: assign any glass to a section, split and merge sections to refine the design, lean on a symmetry helper so rose windows and borders come out perfectly balanced, and flip a backlight on to see the whole piece light up. Zoom in to place the fine details, swap the palette to try the same window in new colours, and let the lead came lines knit it all together. Everything you make is kept in a personal gallery, each window saved with its layout and glass so you can reopen, refine, duplicate into a new colourway, or simply admire the collection. A set of templates — rose window, cathedral lancet, geometric grid — gives you somewhere to begin. Wrapped in a warm animated title and buttons styled just for it, Vitrail runs completely offline with no account and no ads, and the glass and frame textures are crafted into the app itself so it looks rich from the first launch. Whether you want five calm minutes or a long evening building an intricate masterpiece, Vitrail turns an empty frame into a window full of light.
