# AEG Corporate Identity (AEGの企業アイデンティティ) — image generation prompt
# IndexStyle No.216 — https://indexstyle.org/styles/aeg-identity
# Style descriptors only. This prompt names no artist, studio, brand or work.

Produce four original images in the visual language of AEG Corporate Identity, a style from Modern Design Movements, 1907-1914.

## What to make

Make the kind of thing this style exists for: aligning products, printed matter and buildings under one corporate standard, or putting the design criteria for mass production into words a company can share. Choose one subject and hold it across all four images.

## What has to be visible

- Company lettering drawn from geometry
- Products built as one family of forms
- A gabled front of steel and glass with the ornament taken off
- One hand visible from kettle to catalogue

Someone who knows this style should be able to point at each of these in the finished image.

## How to build it

- Layout and structure: Products and advertising built on one grid and one dimensional system
- Type and lettering: One typeface fixed as a standard, sizes and margins given as numbers
- Material and surface: Standard industrial materials, with quality carried by the finish
- Colour: #f1eeed carries the ground, #937e5e is the colour the style is remembered by, #22231a holds text and outlines. Read off real works, so treat them as a direction rather than a fixed palette.
- What it should feel like: trust, technique, futurity

## What goes wrong

Reading standardization as sameness, making everything one shape and skipping the argument about quality, which lands in dull mass production.

## Across the four

Keep every cue above present in all four. Vary the framing, the scale and the arrangement so the set shows the range this style covers 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 language described above.
