Color: build on #d8d8d1, #8795a0, #34383b with a single accent drawn from #e8e4d8, #527f8b, #3e4140. 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
# - Precisionism and Streamline Moderne share no intent, so the contrast has to become the subject rather than something to smooth over.

# Cautions carried from each entry
# - Precisionism: Cleaning up contours without deciding where the light comes from leaves the planes unexplained, and the picture flattens into a technical drawing.
# - Streamline Moderne: Curves and horizontals added without any functional reason become a pattern that merely looks fast, no different from the ornament they replaced.
