Komawari Plates

A warm cream proof-sheet ground printed with two acid poster spot inks over a dense black key — energetic, high-contrast, editorial, and unmistakably press-made.

Do
  • · Keep cream and black as the constant base and use magenta and cobalt like poster highlighters
  • · Hold semantic colours (success, warning, error) to small functional roles, never visually primary
  • · Build elevation from the registration-offset magenta+cobalt plates, not from grey shadows
Don't
  • · Do not let magenta and cobalt fill whole backgrounds as gradients or glow
  • · Do not introduce a fourth signature hue or a pastel wash
  • · Do not place a single coloured edge on a card as the only accent
