An original image that takes its structure from International Style (Style, 1920s–1960s) and its accent from Purism (Style, 1918–1925). Structural cues: Rectangular volumes; Glass planes; No ornament; The free plan. Accent cues, used sparingly: Silhouettes of standardised everyday objects; Compositions built on horizontals and verticals; A restrained number of colours; Contour lines of overlapping forms. Composition: Carry floors on columns so plan and facade both stay free.. Type and lettering: Align sans serif signs to the column grid, flush with the wall.. Let one material quality come from the second style: Greys and ochres with a little blue, surfaces painted evenly and matte. Mood: Trust, Calm, Futurism. Color: build on #eeece5, #9ca3a5, #252729 with a single accent drawn from #e9e6dd, #67635d, #171615. Constraints: do not imitate, reference or name any specific artist, studio, brand, character or copyrighted work. Produce an original composition in the general period languages described above.

# Cautions carried from each entry
# - International Style: A white box alone misses the structure, free plan, industrial materials and social program, and ornament stripped without tuned proportion and detail reads as cheapness, leaving openings with no reason for their position.
# - Purism: Bringing anecdote or ornament back turns the objects from standardized types into picturesque still lifes, and the clarity of the machine age is lost.
