Voice & Don'ts
Tone Professional, confident, and understated. Headlines Bold, direct, and highly legible. CTAs Subtle text links that guide rather than shout. Don't use a dark mode — the screenshot shows a pure white background. Don't add bright accent colors — the palette is strictly monochrome. Don't use decorative serif fonts — the screenshot shows a geometric sans-serif throughout. Don't add heavy drop shadows — the surfaces are flat and rely on borders or typography for depth. Don't clutter the UI with many colors — it uses a strict black, white, and gray palette. Don't use rounded corners on everything — the design is sharp and architectural. Avoid: Excessive decoration Avoid: Loud colors Avoid: Complex animations

This is a minimalist portfolio for a Senior Art Director, featuring a monochromatic palette (black ink #000000, white background #FFFFFF, muted gray #7F7F7F). The typography is a geometric sans-serif (Diatype Variable) with tight letter-spacing on display sizes. The layout is spacious with generous white space and a clear editorial feel. Critical don'ts: Don't introduce bright accent colors, don't use decorative serifs, and don't clutter the interface with heavy shadows or complex UI components. The design relies on strong photography and bold typography to create impact.
