## 1. Illustrated Editorial Cover

Use for opening slides.

- Large sans-serif title on one side.
- Abstract conceptual illustration on the opposite side.
- Light warm or white background.
- Small subtitle and source label.
- Illustration should feel refined, not decorative filler.

## 2. Conceptual Thesis

Use for strategic argument slides.

- One concise headline.
- One large abstract illustration that expresses the concept.
- 2-3 supporting notes placed around the illustration.
- Keep the layout spacious and asymmetric.

## 3. Workflow Illustration

Use for process, agent flow, product journey, or system explanation.

- Use smooth connected shapes or curved paths.
- Add tiny human or object elements only if they clarify meaning.

- Keep labels short.

## 4. Idea Map
