Siebdruck
An engine-agnostic style recipe: a wide hero, proof shots across subjects, and a portable prompt.
1 hero · 3 proofs
Prompt template
Reduce {subject} to flat, hard-edged geometric planes printed as a high-contrast modernist poster: no gradients, no soft shading, no blended tone — form is built from interlocking solid shapes and crisp silhouettes. Use {palette} as a strict, limited ink set — a bright paper ground, one deep near-black for structure and contours, and a single saturated signal colour used sparingly as a positional accent on one or two key shapes, never as a fill across the whole frame. Lay faint hairline registration rules and a thin baseline grid behind the subject so it reads as printed on a measured sheet. Keep the composition asymmetric with generous negative space, posterized and reductive, with a subtle off-set lithography paper grain. Full-frame.Slot recipes
hero — A single bold subject pushed to one third of the frame with a wide open negative-space band on the opposite side for an overlaid headline; signal colour reserved for one structural edge or marker.
feature — A tight reductive vignette of the subject in two-to-three flat planes, signal colour on a single detail, hairline grid faint behind.
avatar — A three-quarter face or object reduced to four or five interlocking planes, one signal accent, paper ground, square crop.
empty-state — A nearly-empty sheet: one small reductive symbol of the subject low in the frame, a faint registration cross, mostly paper ground.
illustration — A full-frame asymmetric scene of the subject as overlapping flat planes, ink-black structure, one signal accent on a focal shape, faint baseline grid.

Do
- · Build everything from flat solid shapes and hard edges; let silhouette carry the form.
- · Keep the signal colour scarce — a single accent that points the eye, never a wash.
- · Hold a strict paper / ink / one-signal three-ink discipline.
- · Leave architectural negative space; let the subject breathe on a measured sheet.
Don't
- · No gradients, glows, or soft shadows — nothing that reads as airbrushed or 3d.
- · Do not flood the frame with the signal colour or add a second bright hue.
- · Do not clutter; reductive geometry beats rendered detail.
- · Never bake in text, letters, or logos.
