Making a background in Illustrator of this style is easier than you may think. In todays Illustrator tutorial, I walk you through step by step, on how to make a vector background, that utilises various techniques in Illustrator, to result in a truly visually appealing background design.
There are a few tricks along the way, that will really help your background ‘pop’ and stand out for all of the right reasons. We also are going to be adding drop shadows, gradient, and masks to our vector background, all using Adobe Illustrator.
The background in todays design tutorial, is optimised for web based graphics, so it will look best on screens such as phones and desktops. For this reason, we design the background with an RGB document in Adobe Illustrator, to ensure the colours and effects look best for the final vector background design. If you wish to see more Illustrator tutorials by Satori Graphics on vector backgrounds, to backgrounds in general, let me know as I do think they are quite fun to design and create. Also let me know hat you thought of todays background design, and maybe it has inspired you to go ahead and create your very own background in Illustrator?

I did this another way I did an inner shadow on the top layer to make it look reversed. It looks sweet as! Thanks Tom!

Another great tutorial. There are some nuances to this design that are worth mentioning, the process for manually adding shadows to the stripes only works on stripes that are concave at both ends. I didn't realise that until the end and it looks weird if you add a shadow to a stripe where one end sticks out. Also the final image shown here looks like it has had some other subtle shadows added to make the background stripes look deeper into the page than the foreground ones. I guess it's the sign of a good tutorial series if you end up learning how to visually deconstruct a design, rather than relying entirely on the dialog. Great stuff.

[@Someone38482]

another way to make the gradient be smooth in the whole shape is: you select the whole shape and right click, " make compound path"

Option for dark mode interface is good, but we are left with the blinding white canvas. I always start my files with a bottom layer of a giant solid grey that covers the entire white then lock it. Easier on the eyes.

you need to know at the beginning where to put your gradient shadows, unless if you make a group - in the end it will be difficult to add beautiful stripe with shadow

[@danieldictatorandrew]

how do you do 4:40 in Inkscape?

[@SatoriGraphics]

I've never really used Inkscape, so cannot say

[@Melmin447]

Can be done, but it may look a smidge different (see side note below). This is how I did it...after you draw your rectangle shape, move the circle handle down in top right corner to round the ends. Now do Union with all the pieces selected (leave the squares out, but change them with the circle handles too). After doing Union, make sure it's one piece by selecting with the Node Selector...if it isn't, one of the rectangles is not perfectly aligned to the bottom edge of the one above it (that happened to me). Now, with the unioned piece selected, go to Path > Linked Offset*, and pull down the diamond handle a tad. You'll have the original still on top so you won't see the effect yet...get rid of that (select original with node selector and do Ctrl+A then Ctrl+X), and now your linked offset will be there and you can play with the diamond handle for sizing it to your liking. *I found that Dynamic Offset just didn't work as well as Linked Offset, but you can try that one and see how it turns out too. Could have just been me. ;) Side Note: You may need to make your rectangle pieces taller than he did as the linked offset will make them smaller, but it still may look slightly different than his.

[@tuttopackk]

So cool, many thanks for your tips dude! peace

Vector background finally ....thank you for tutorial ..what about mock-up next time ? How to present ur logo or design ...

drop shadow don't work in stock images like Shutterstock.it gives an error

[@jacobwonder6735]

Obviously. Take a piece of paper and shine a light on it. There is only one shadow, cut that paper up in layers and you'll see more than one. That's the difference between an exported one, and an expanded one.
