| 1 | # Visual style: blueprint |
| 2 | |
| 3 | Engineering schematic — thin line work on dark blueprint paper, isometric projection, technical-annotation language. Speaks like a drawing hung on a wall, not a marketing slide. For architecture walkthroughs, technical briefings, engineering whitepapers, systems explainers. |

| 7 | ## 1. Shape & decoration |
| 8 | |
| 9 | - Shape language: thin single-weight line frames (no heavy fills); components drawn as outlined geometry; optional isometric / 3D-axonometric projection for structures. Slight or zero corner rounding. |
| 10 | - Composition geometry: let the schematic be the layout — a full-page annotated drawing as the skeleton with content hung on leader lines; a circular detail blow-up linked to its source; dimension-line brackets framing a hero figure; an isometric exploded stack for structure or sequence; a drawing-sheet title block anchoring one corner. |
| 11 | - Decoration: the engineering-drawing vocabulary — dimension lines, leader arrows, component codes, coordinate labels, a faint gridline backdrop under everything. Annotation *is* the decoration. |
| 12 | - Whitespace: the grid breathes through; let line work float on the dark field with measured spacing. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | ## 2. Typography character |
| 15 | |
| 16 | - Clean sans for labels and body; monospace for every component name / code / coordinate — mirroring how real technical docs read. |
| 17 | - Small, precise annotation type; wide tracking on coordinate / dimension labels. Restraint over emphasis. |
| 18 | |
| 19 | > Families are chosen at confirmation `g`; this style asks for a clean sans + monospace pairing. This governs editable native text; decorative-lettering eligibility remains a separate carrier decision. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | ## 3. Using the deck's colors |
| 22 | |
| 23 | - Dark paper field; a single line-color carries all the schematic line work (frames, connectors, edges); one spot accent marks the current state / key path / callout — the classic engineering-drawing convention of one highlight color. |
| 24 | - Everything else stays low-key line work. The accent appears at few points, high contrast. |
| 25 | |
| 26 | > HEX values come from confirmation `e`; this style only governs the line-vs-accent discipline — it names no colors. |
| 27 | |
| 28 | ## 4. Texture / elevation |
| 29 | |
| 30 | - Flat line work, not material elevation. Depth reads from isometric projection and layered line weights, not shadows. Optional subtle corner vignette / accent glow on the dark paper — keep it faint. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | ## 5. Paired image-rendering |
| 33 | |
| 34 | `blueprint` — lock it so AI imagery shares the schematic line-drawing aesthetic. |
| 35 | |
| 36 | ## 6. Illustration propensity |
| 37 | |
| 38 | **supportive** — when illustration is selected, its natural language is schematic line-work, annotated marks, and blueprint-aligned transparent elements, whether authored in SVG or generated and sliced. Role, scale, reuse, and placement stay Strategist judgment; an explicit user request wins either way, and `image_usage: none` writes no illustration rows. |
