## Do's and Don'ts

**Don't:**
- Don't use decorative or script fonts — screenshot shows a clean, geometric grotesque sans-serif.
- Don't use rounded corners on cards or containers — screenshot shows sharp, rectangular edges.
- Don't use bright, saturated accent colors — screenshot uses a strict neutral palette of black, white, and grays.
- Don't use heavy drop shadows or complex 3D effects — screenshot shows minimal, subtle shadows.
- Don't use center-aligned text for body copy — screenshot shows left-aligned or centered only for headlines.
- Don't use lowercase for navigation and section headers — screenshot shows all-uppercase text with wide letter-spacing.

## System Prompt (paste into AI agent)

```
This is a premium, minimal e-commerce site for a modern clothing brand. The design DNA is built on a strict neutral palette of white (#FFFFFF), off-white (#F8F6F5), and near-black (#121212). Typography is a clean grotesque sans-serif, used almost exclusively in uppercase with wide letter-spacing for navigation and headings. Layout is grid-based with generous white space, allowing high-quality photography to dominate. Key critical donts: do not use bright accent colors, do not use decorative fonts, and do not use rounded corners on major components. The overall feel is restrained, premium, and focused on product photography.
