## Before you start

Guidance from Reference, separate from the creator's instructions.

1. Read the reference and inspect the project, installed libraries, and available agent skills before writing code. Reuse suitable tools already present.
2. Prefer the creator-reported libraries and skills when they fit the task. Explain what useful additions help with, and install missing project dependencies or relevant skills from official sources when the environment and the user's existing permissions allow it. Respect the project's package manager and setup rules; do not ask again for routine setup already authorized.
3. Distinguish tools used by the creator from your own recommendations. A listed tool is not automatically required, and an empty tools or requirements list means the setup is unknown, not that nothing is needed.
4. Ask concise questions when missing inputs or choices materially affect the result: paid services, credentials, the user's assets, or a different production approach. Use existing answers and permissions; continue independent work while waiting.
5. If a useful library, skill, or service cannot be installed or used, explain an available alternative and its expected effect on quality, features, or effort. Get the user's choice before a material compromise; otherwise state the fallback and continue. Never silently simplify the result or claim to have used a tool you did not use.

## Recreating this deck

This is a visual reference. No original creator prompt is available. The following brief was written by Reference after inspecting the work.

Build a reusable slide frame with small corner annotations, vertical edge labels and generous neutral margins, then vary the scale and placement of the main visual. Use grain-textured organic color fields with darker overlaps, and reuse their contours as masks for tinted photography. Alternate immersive graphic slides with compact explanatory columns and a sparse side-by-side comparison. For a new subject, replace the wordmark, symbol, photography and copy, and derive the recurring shapes and palette from that subject rather than copying these assets.

1. Open the live work or source and inspect the frame images below.
2. Adapt its layout, hierarchy, palette, and interaction patterns to the user's own content and brand.
3. Compare the result against the reference. Use your own assets and credit the original creator.

## What it looks like

Written by Reference from the captured walkthrough frames, not by the creator.

Overflow identity system built around a distinctive serif wordmark, a circular symbol, and bold abstract color fields.

- Color: Off-white and black with vivid cyan, blue, green, and orange; some applications use dark navy or black backgrounds.
- Type: Elegant high-contrast serif for the Overflow wordmark, paired with clean sans-serif headings and body text; the logo also appears as an outlined treatment.
- Framing: Slides combine large, cropped geometric forms and prominent branding with restrained text layouts, logo studies, and identity applications.
- Structure: A visual identity presentation progressing through title and logo explorations, color and type examples, explanatory specification pages, and branded applications.
