Voice & Don'ts
Tone Confident, bold, and slightly irreverent. Headlines Large, tight-tracked geometric sans-serif with high contrast. CTAs Direct and action-oriented, often lowercase or matching the brand voice. Don't use serif fonts — screenshot shows geometric sans-serif for all text. Don't add background colors to buttons — screenshot shows text-only navigation links. Don't use heavy drop shadows — screenshot shows completely flat surfaces. Don't use rounded corners on cards or containers — screenshot shows sharp, square edges. Don't use multiple accent colors — screenshot shows a strictly monochrome palette with project imagery providing color. Don't clutter the layout with borders — screenshot shows minimal horizontal dividers. Avoid: Formal corporate language Avoid: Cluttered interfaces Avoid: Low-contrast text

System prompt
Basement Studio is a high-end creative agency specializing in digital experiences and branding. The design DNA is defined by a deep black (#000000) background and pure white (#ffffff) ink, creating a stark, high-contrast canvas. Typography utilizes geometric sans-serif (Geist) and monospace (Geist Mono) categories. The layout is spacious and grid-based, prioritizing bold headlines and immersive project imagery. Critical don'ts: never add background colors to buttons, never use rounded corners on containers, and never introduce multiple accent colors into the core interface.
