- Warm cream and pale gray backgrounds, deep navy panels, muted grayscale portraits, and small red accents.

- Elegant serif headlines and quotations paired with small, clean sans-serif labels and captions.
- Framing
- Centered Venn diagram and portrait groupings give way to dark, left-aligned lists and terminal-style panels, then spare, centered questions and statements.
- Structure
- Alternating light and dark slides combine conceptual diagrams, labeled thinkers, hierarchy lists, explanatory text panels, and emphatic quotation slides.
