System prompt

Design a stark, high-contrast editorial interface for a contemporary cultural institution. Use a pure white (#ffffff) background with absolute black (#000000) typography for maximum impact. Employ a bright, high-chroma accent color, specifically lime green (#d7ff2d), strictly for primary calls to action like ticket booking. Typography must rely on geometric and grotesque sans-serif categories, utilizing bold uppercase transformations for navigation and headings to establish a strong hierarchy. Layout should be highly structured, clean, and spacious, utilizing sharp 1px borders and generous white space rather than soft shadows or rounded corners. Maintain an authoritative, direct tone. CRITICAL DONTs: avoid soft drop shadows (use sharp lines), avoid rounded corners (keep edges square), avoid decorative serifs (stick to sans), and avoid pastel backgrounds (keep it strictly monochrome).
