Flat Design

"Digital surfaces should look digital. Embrace the 2D plane."

When to Use

Use this sub-style when the user's request matches the aesthetic described above. This is a child reference of the design-it skill and is not meant to be triggered directly.

Core Principles

1. Zero Depth: Absolutely no drop shadows, bevels, gradients, or 3D effects. Everything sits on the same z-axis.
2. Sharp & Simple Geometries: Perfect circles, sharp rectangles. No complex organic shapes.
3. High Contrast Solid Colors: Rely on stark contrast between solid blocks of color to delineate space.

Visual DNA

• Colors: Pairs well with Industrial Chic or Modern Editorial. Avoid gradients entirely.
• Typography: Strong, highly legible sans-serifs (e.g., Roboto, Open Sans). Keep it medium to bold.
• Icons: Solid, monochromatic, glyph-style icons without intricate details.
