Full sentences. Describe the scene, then the medium, then the flaws you want kept in.

The recipe is the style, not the picture. Put your own subject in and the prompt updates.

Prompt

A contemporary brutalist exhibition poster. Off white paper, a single oversized black grotesque headline set tight and running past the right margin, an exposed twelve column grid shown as thin rules, one hard cropped duotone photograph in the lower left, a dense block of small caption type, one vermilion accent rectangle. Flat offset print, no gradients, no shadows, generous negative space.

Tips

  • 1Describe the grid as a visible element and the layout tightens immediately.
  • 2One accent colour. Two is a different style.
  • 3Say no gradients and no shadows explicitly. Models add both by default.
