# IndexStyle — https://indexstyle.org/compose?ids=islamic-geometric-pattern+op-art
# Islamic Geometric Pattern carries the structure. Op Art appear as accents, each further back than the last.
# Style descriptors only. Never imitates a specific artist, studio, brand or work.

An original image that takes its structure from Islamic Geometric Pattern (Technique, 8th century–) and its accent from Op Art (Style, 1960s–). Structural cues: Compass construction; Star forms; Repeating units; Interlacing lines. Accent cues, used sparingly: High contrast; Repeated lines; Optical illusion; Geometric distortion. Composition: Derive the unit from the construction circle and size the field in whole units.. Type and lettering: If lettering enters, give it its own band and leave the grid intact.. Let one material quality come from the second style: Black and white plus exactly one color. Mood: Calm, Luxury, Trust, Exhilaration, Futurism, Technology. Color: build on #e6d4a7, #3d7692, #6c4c38 with a single accent drawn from #f4f2ea, #171715, #e34b35. 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.

# Where the two fight
# - Islamic Geometric Pattern and Op Art share no intent, so the contrast has to become the subject rather than something to smooth over.
# - Roughly 1952 years apart. Keep one of them recognisably period rather than letting both drift into the middle.

# Cautions carried from each entry
# - Islamic Geometric Pattern: Star shapes pasted together without the construction leave lines that miss at the crossings, and the error multiplies when repeated. The Islamic world is not one culture, so check region, dynasty, material and use.
# - Op Art: Never let the vibration reach the reading zone. Lower area and contrast on long-viewed screens.
