From README
DESIGN PHILOSOPHY CREATION To begin, create a VISUAL PHILOSOPHY (not layouts or templates) that will be interpreted through: Form, space, color, composition Images, graphics, shapes, patterns Minimal text as visual accent THE CRITICAL UNDERSTANDING What is received: Some subtle input or instructions by the user that should be taken into account, but used as a foundation; it should not constrain creative freedom. What is created: A design philosophy/aesthetic movement. What happens next: Then, the same version receives the philosophy and EXPRESSES IT VISUALLY - creating artifacts that are 90% visual design, 10% essential text. Consider this approach: Write a manifesto for an art movement The next phase involves making the artwork The philosophy must emphasize: Visual expression. Spatial communication. Artistic interpretation. Minimal words.
