# Slide Patterns ## 1. Hand-Drawn Editorial Cover Use for opening slides. - Large light-weight sans-serif title. - Delicate line illustration on one side. - Soft paper texture. - Small annotation or date label. - One subtle divider only. ## 2. Quiet Concept Use for abstract ideas or thesis slides. - One short statement. - Small hand-drawn metaphor near the statement. - Use pale wash behind the visual. - Keep most of the slide open. ## 3. Workspace Scene Use for process, team, or creative work. - Desk, notebook, laptop, plant, pen, or paper objects drawn with thin uneven lines. - Add 2-3 small annotations. - Keep the drawing quiet and sparse. ## 4. Organic Flow Use for workflow or journey slides. - Hand-drawn curved path. - Small nodes or sketches along the path. - Muted indigo marks the current or important step. - Avoid perfect arrows and rigid flowcharts. ## 5. Soft Comparison Use for before/after or two approaches. - Two uneven text columns. - One delicate divider. - Tiny hand-drawn icons or annotations. - Pale wash highlights the preferred side. ## 6. Human Detail Use for user stories or observations. - Small human-scale sketch. - Quote or observation as the main text. - Light gray annotation line. - No dramatic illustration scale. ## 7. Closing Note Use for final slides. - One calm closing phrase. - Small botanical, desk, or abstract line illustration. - Minimal metadata. - Wide negative space.
