• Format: 4:5 Instagram post.
• Background: ivory with subtle lighting gradient.
• Composition: centered, minimal, and visually focused.
• Typography: elegant serif paired with modern sans-serif.
• Layout: refined spacing, minimal but powerful.
• Feeling: premium, calm, editorial, confident.

Required Palette

Non-Negotiables

• Use 4:5 aspect ratio unless the user explicitly asks otherwise.
• Keep the design minimal and premium.
• Use ivory as the dominant background.
• Use gold sparingly for accent, dividers, monogram-like marks, or key details.
• Use deep black for strong typography.
• Use centered composition with one strong visual focus.
• Avoid loud colors, cheap metallic gradients, heavy shadows, clutter, stickers, casual icons, and busy product collages.
