# Memphis × Wacky Pomo — composed image prompt
# IndexStyle — https://indexstyle.org/compose?ids=memphis+wacky-pomo
# Memphis carries the structure and Wacky Pomo appears as the accent.
# Style descriptors only. This prompt names no artist, studio, brand or work.

Produce four original images that take their structure from Memphis (style, 1980s) and their accent from Wacky Pomo (style, early 1990s–early 2000s).

## What to make

Make the kind of thing Memphis exists for: softening a stiff subject, or A young, sunny personality. Choose one subject and hold it across all four.

## Structure comes from Memphis

- Zigzags
- Small figures
- Pastel plus primary
- Speckles

Composition: Scatter small motifs, anchor with one large shape. Type and lettering: A chunky geometric sans.

## Accent comes from Wacky Pomo, used sparingly

- Distorted checks, spirals, zigzags, and bursting arrows
- Cartoon gears, pipes, eyes, tongues, and strange machines
- Violet, lime, orange, and red with black outlines
- Heavy headlines whose letters change shape and angle

Let one material quality come from it: Unify flat spot color, rough cartoon lines, molded plastic, and painted metal at high saturation.

## Colour and feeling

Build the ground on #f5cfda, carry the structure in #f4c62f and #2a9e9a, and let a single accent come from #F06B34. These are read off real works, so a direction rather than a fixed palette.
Feeling to carry: play, exhilaration, rebellion.

## What goes wrong

- Memphis: Don't stop at background pattern. Map the figures to navigation and units of meaning.
- Wacky Pomo: Do not use density merely to seize children’s attention. Keep age, advertising disclosure, and safety information above decoration in the hierarchy.

## Across the four

Keep the roles fixed in all four. Vary the framing, the scale and the arrangement so the set shows what this pairing can do rather than four versions of one picture.

## Constraints

- Do not imitate, reference or name any specific artist, studio, brand, character or copyrighted work.
- Do not reproduce the composition of an existing work.
- Produce original compositions in the general period languages described above.
