## 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 website

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

Embed a small documentary image directly into an oversized name or headline, leaving generous space above and below while anchoring utility information to the viewport edges. Carry hairline rules and compact labels into a two-column feature and a wide schedule table, then alternate these dense information sections with large photographic pauses. For a new subject, replace the portraits, release artwork, and dates with relevant material, and choose a single accent color that can also tint a featured image.

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.

Minimalist, editorial presentation for Paul Kalkbrenner, combining bold typography, monochrome portraits, and colorful media stills.

- Color: Mostly white, black, and light gray, with vivid lime green, deep blue, and occasional warm red and orange imagery.
- Type: Large, bold sans-serif lettering for the artist name and headings; small, restrained sans-serif text for navigation and details.
- Framing: A spacious, wide layout with a small navigation header, oversized artist branding, and broad image and content panels. Several sections appear repeated side by side in the displayed frames.
- Structure: Navigation and artist title at the top, followed by large media panels, gray and green information or feature sections, portrait imagery, and a black footer.
