An engine-agnostic style recipe: a wide hero, proof shots across subjects, and a portable prompt.

{subject}, in the style of Quoin — a flat hard-edged postmodern screenprint that rebuilds the subject entirely out of bold registered geometric color planes, each plane outlined with crisp even-weight black construction lines and carrying a single one-directional misregistration offset (a clean duplicate edge nudged a few pixels diagonally down-right in a contrasting flat color), like printed blocks slightly out of register; {palette}; structural background zones of a thin mint grid, an oversized flat color disk, lilac postmodern arch fragments, and small black-and-off-white checkerboard corner keys; purely flat ink fields, high chroma, three brights over a warm off-white ground, no gradients, no soft shadows, no blur, image fills the entire frameSlot recipes
hero — {subject} rebuilt at large scale from registered color planes, filling the frame edge to edge; one oversized flat lemon disk and a lilac arch fragment anchor the background; thin mint grid behind; checkerboard corner keys in two corners; cobalt/cherry/lemon brights over warm off-white
feature — {subject} in three-quarter view as interlocking color-plane slabs with clear black construction lines and crisp diagonal misregistration offsets; a single arch fragment and partial mint grid frame it; balanced off-white breathing space
avatar — {subject} cropped close and centered, reconstructed from a few large registered color planes, one checkerboard corner key, plain off-white ground, minimal background, square framing
empty-state — a single small {subject} built from sparse color planes adrift on a wide warm off-white field with a faint mint grid and one lilac arch fragment; generous silence, low density, one quiet checkerboard key
illustration — {subject} as a busy registered-plane composition stepping across the frame like a playful city elevation, multiple misregistration offsets, lemon disk and lilac arches as structural zones, mint grid behind, checkerboard keys marking corners

Do
- · Rebuild any subject out of bold flat registered color planes with uniform-weight black construction lines.
- · Give every color block one consistent diagonal misregistration offset in a flat contrasting color.
- · Keep cobalt, cherry, and lemon as the bright trio; use mint and lilac only as structural underlay.
- · Anchor the background with a thin mint grid, an oversized flat disk, lilac arch fragments, and checkerboard corner keys.
- · Fill the frame with the subject and leave warm off-white breathing room between chroma blocks.
Don't
- · Do not use gradients, glows, soft drop shadows, blur, or glassmorphism.
- · Do not let the misregistration read as a fuzzy shadow or point in mixed directions.
- · Do not let more than three bright colors dominate one surface.
- · Do not scatter checkerboard or arch fragments as meaningless confetti.
- · Do not render the subject photorealistically or in 3d; keep everything flat ink fields.
